LH Department Wants to Be Intensive in Monitoring Environmental Problems

"We treat electronic waste differently to prevent it from polluting the environment," she conveyed, Tuesday (4/16).

By so, her side wants to motivate other building managements in Jakarta to also conduct the same system.

"In City Hall, e-waste drop box monitoring is held once a week and waste transporting is done once a month. It depends on how many waste collected in the box. But we will do transporting when the box is already full though it is less than a month," she said.
