Fida explained that the workshop in North Jakarta was not only centered at the St. Andrew Kim Tae Gon Church, but was also held simultaneously in six urban villages and a number of schools.
"Eco enzyme has many benefits, both for household needs and to support environmental preservation," she added.
Meanwhile, representative of St. Andrew Kim Tae Gon Church, Father Yustinus Kesarianto, expressed his appreciation for the synergy that was established in organizing the activity.
"We have long utilized eco-enzymes as a solution for managing organic waste within the church community. The church community has also developed various derivative products based on eco-enzymes," he admitted.
He hopes that this activity can increase public awareness to care more about the environment while strengthening collaboration between various parties in realizing clean, healthy and sustainable rivers.
