Jakarta LH Agency Head Asep Kuswanto expected the collaborators to participate in planning, execution, and evaluation to find out goals that have been achieved.

"It is a synergy in a program organized by Environment (LH) Agency, aggregators, and collaborators. Thus in the future, we know where we are going and what else we have to do," he mentioned, Friday (7/1).

At the meeting, he conveyed, the collaborators formed a discussion team to determine the programs in 2023 and exchange the best practice ideas regarding waste management in Jakarta and planning for future programs.
