To maximize public awareness for not littering, Jakarta Cleanliness Department will intensify a raid against people who throw litter periodically throughout the year.

The offenders must be reprimanded and warned for not littering

"The raid is still ongoing, but it is still tentative. We wanted it could be intensified throughout the year," told Head of Jakarta Cleanliness Department, Isnawa Adji, Monday (7/13).

Adji hoped the raid could be more re-intensified. Satpol PP and Jakarta Cleanliness Department personnel also hope could cooperate each other in intensifying it in each territory.

"The offenders must be reprimanded and warned for not littering," he stressed.

Besides that, the officers of Infrastructure and Public Facilities Improvements (PPSU) in each urban village may participate and report, as well as control people who caught littering.

"We want the PPSU officers to assist us in optimizing the operation," he expressed.

Adji disclosed despite the raid has been intensified by urban village and sub-district head, and mayors at regional level, but its implementation is still unoptimal. This is because it only lasted one day.

"The data of the citizens who underwent the minor criminal offenses (tipiring) is held by mayor. As far as I know, its number reached 18 people in West Jakarta and 18 people in South Jakarta," he told.
