“We already have a long-term work plan to help preserve the environment, so it is not only finished with this activity but there are still other programs,” he said.
Semarang City Regional Secretary Iswar Aminuddin welcomed the cleanup of Tirang Beach by Pelindo Group.
According to him, it takes a joint commitment to maintain cleanliness and environmental sustainability. Environmental cleanliness is a shared responsibility, especially the community. He is always open to anyone who will provide support to the Semarang City Government in maintaining environmental cleanliness.
“The government facilitates and provides support, but what is more important is the awareness of the community itself to dispose of waste in its place and reduce waste production, especially those made from plastic,” he said.
Furthermore, Iswar said, Tirang Beach is one of the remaining tourist beaches in Semarang City. Tirang Beach is currently a tourist destination for local people. For this reason, public awareness in maintaining the cleanliness of the Tirang Beach environment is needed so that it remains a comfortable tourist location.
