The Legislature encourages the improvement of waste management to Bali

Jakarta – Member of the House of Representatives Commission XII Jamaludin Malik highlighted parts of Bali that were flooded. He refers to the case of the garbage crisis as one of the factors that exacerbated floods in Bali. “Flooding is not just a natural phenomenon. The garbage crisis that is not managed in tourist areas such as Bali has worsened its impact. It’s time for the government to build sophisticated early warning systems while correcting national waste management,” Jamaludin told reporters on Thursday (18/9/2025). Jamaludin highlighted BMKG data reminiscent of the potential for rain one month in one day in Bali. According to him, it should be seriously addressed with good waste management. Browse to continue the content, he emphasized that the 2026 state budget must prioritize waste control in different regions. The Golkar Legislature also asked for integration of BMKG, BPBD, KLH to strengthen the early warning system. “The government should encourage the integration of BMKG, BPBD and KLH data to strengthen the early warning system. On the other hand, technology -based waste and the circular economic management must be a priority of the 2026 APBN, so that climate change adjustment is not only Jargon, but the national economy said. He referred to Nusakambangan Island, who had previously been a garbage emergency with 12 UPTs, but has now managed to reach zero waste thanks to management of the Ministry of Immigration and Corrections. He asked the regional government to accelerate investment in the waste management sector, from digital waste banks, recycled technology, to the waste power plant (PLTSA). “Environmental feathers are part of national security. We cannot constantly respond to disasters with reactive patterns. The Indonesian parliament will oversee that the 2026 state budget is actually allocating adequate funds for the mitigation and climate adjustment, including more modern and environmentally friendly waste management,” he added. It is known, parts of Bali were hit by floods on Wednesday (9/10/2025). Flooding then plunged the Denpasar and Badung areas again on Monday (9/15/2025). President Prabowo Subianto directly observed the impact of the Bali flood disaster directly on Saturday (9/13). The visit was performed with the head of the National Disaster Management Agency (BNPB) Lieutenant General Suharyanto. (DWR/YLD)
