ANALYSIS OF ENVIRONMENT SUPERVISION AND CONTROL

ON WASTE MANAGEMENT IN INDONESIA AND JAPAN


OVERVIEW OF WASTE MANAGEMENT IN INDONESIA
Definition of Waste
In Law No. 18 on Waste Management, the definition of waste as a residual activity of human and / or natural
processes is solid. Waste is essentially waste or waste from human sources of activity and natural processes
that have no economic value, can even have a negative economic value because in the good handling to
dispose or clean it costs a lot. Waste is material that has no value or value for the purpose of fabrication of
ordinary or principal or the use of defective or defective goods on manufacturing fabrics or excessive or
irreversible materials or consumables. Waste management is a systematic and sustainable activity that includes
waste reduction and handling.
In the process of nature there is no garbage. Garbage is a synthetic concept largely derived from industrial
activity (also known as waste), such as mining, manufacturing, and consumption. Almost all industrial products
will be garbage with an amount almost equal to the amount of consumption. Trash can be solid, liquid, or gas.
If the waste forms gas, then the waste is called emissions. Emissions are usually associated with pollution.
Garbage or solid waste such as objects in the form of plastic, aluminium, iron, cans, bottles / glass / glass, and
so forth. While the liquid waste is the seepage of liquid waste from the decomposition of waste is called lindir
and can pollute groundwater and rivers. Groundwater contamination, such as, is caused by the bacteria
content of e-coli and heavy metals.

Governments are responsible for the proper collection and disposal of garbage from settlements. However,
because there are other things that should be prioritized in the development in the region and the lack of
funding support for the operation of waste management, making in some areas of waste management
activities is not as expected. This is further reinforced by the absence of the principle that those producing
goods must manage the waste from the goods.
Some common conditions occurred in the implementation of urban waste management during this time,
where household waste by society is collected and disposed of into a container or container provided by the
government. From here trash is transported by truck to generally less controlled landfills, where scavengers
look for recyclable items.
From some of the above understanding, it can be concluded that Waste is a solid waste material from the
activities of households, markets, offices, lodging houses, hotels, restaurants, industry, building materials and
old ruins, motor vehicles, waste is a by-product of Human activities that have been used. The amount of waste
generated in a particular area is proportional to the level of consumption of goods or population. The greater
the volume of waste generated every day, unsanitary disposal of garbage will cause major problems, because
garbage or garbage disposal into open areas will cause pollution Soil will also affect the ground water channel.
Likewise, burning garbage will lead to water pollution, blockage of drains and floods.

Types of Waste
Then in Law Number 18 of 2008 on Waste Management, set some types of waste are as follows:
1. Household waste, which is solid waste derived from the residual daily activities in the household,

excluding stools and specific waste and from natural processes derived from the household environment.
This garbage is sourced from the house or from the housing complex.
2. Household waste, such as household garbage, is not from households and households but comes from
other sources such as markets, trade centers, offices, schools, hospitals, restaurants, hotels, terminals,
ports, industries , City parks, and more.
3. Specific waste, ie household waste or household waste due to its nature, concentration and / or amount
requiring special handling, including, waste containing B3 (hazardous and toxic materials such as used
batteries, ex-toner, etc.), garbage Which contains B3 waste (medical waste), waste from disasters, debris,
technologically unprocessed waste, periodic waste (waste of conscience).
In waste management planning, the Waste Management Act expects city / district governments to form a kind
of municipal / district or provincial scale waste management forum. This forum consists of community in
general, universities, community leaders, environmental / waste organizations, experts, business entities and
others. Things that can be facilitated forum is: to give suggestions, considerations and suggestions on the

1

performance of waste management, helping formulate waste management policies, Provide advice and be able
to settle disputes disputes. Until now, there is no national policy to know the waste itself is still socialized.

Sources of waste

Based on the definition of garbage and the types of garbage there are also sources of waste that cause air
pollution by bad smell and environmental pollution. There are some experts or opinions about waste sources
According to Gelbert et al. Sources of waste generation are as follows:
1. Waste settlements, namely household waste in the form of food processing waste, used household
equipment, paper, cardboard, glass, cloth, garden waste / yard, and others.
2. Agricultural and plantation waste. Agricultural waste is classified as organic material. During the harvest
season is the time most of this waste is generated which is usually burned or used for fertilizer. For
chemical waste such as pesticides and artificial fertilizers need special treatment so as not to pollute the
environment. Another agricultural waste is a plastic sheet that covers plants that reduce evaporation and
inhibition of weed growth, but this plastic can be recycled.
3. Garbage from the rest of the building and building construction. Garbage originating from buildings and
restoration activities of these buildings can be either organic or inorganic. Organic waste, for example:
plywood, bamboo, wood. Inorganic waste, for example: sand, cement, brick, steel, tile, iron, glass, and
cans.
4. Garbage from trade and office. Garbage originating from trading areas such as: shops, traditional markets,
stalls, supermarkets consist of cardboard, wrapping, paper, and organic materials including food and
restaurant waste. Garbage originating from educational institutions, government and private offices
usually consists of paper, stationery (pencils, ballpoints, markers, etc.), photo copy toner, printer ribbons,
printer ink boxes, batteries, chemicals from laboratories, machine ribbons Typewriting, movie cliches,
broken computers, and so on. Used batteries and chemical wastes should be collected separately and

should be subject to special treatment because it is dangerous and toxic.
5. Waste from industry. This waste comes from a whole series of production processes (chemicals, pieces of
material), treatment and packaging of products (paper, wood, plastic, cloth / cloth saturated with solvents
for cleaning). Industrial waste in the form of chemicals that are often toxic require special treatment
before disposal.

Stages and Process of Waste Management
Waste management is also growing in line with the development of types of waste that will be managed.
Several ways in the stages and the final waste management process undertaken by the community based on
Law Number 18 Year 2008 on Waste Management include the following activities:
1. Waste management is a systematic, comprehensive, and continuous activity which includes waste
reduction and handling.
2. Reduction of waste, ie activities to overcome the incidence of waste since the waste producers
(households, markets, and others), reusing waste from the source and / or at the processing site, and
recycling waste at the source and or at the processing site. Waste reduction will be regulated in a
separate Ministerial Regulation, the activities included in this waste reduction are:
a. Set waste reduction goals.
b. Developing clean technology and product labels.
c. Using production materials that can be recycled or reused.
d. Facilities for use or recycling.

e. Develop awareness of reuse or recycling programs
3. Handling waste, which is a series of garbage collection activities that include sorting (grouping and
segregation of waste by type and nature), collection (moving waste from waste source to TPS or
integrated waste processing facility), transporting (removal of waste from sources, TPS or Integrated
waste processing, final product processing (changing shape, composition, characteristic and amount of
waste to be further processed, utilized or returned to nature and active processing of waste processing or
residue of previous processing results to be returned to environmental media.
4. Temporary shelters are places before waste is transported to recycling, processing, and / or processing
places, and integrated final waste processing.
5. Integrated waste treatment plant is where the collection, reuse, recycling, processing, and final waste
processing activities are conducted.
6. Final waste processing site (TPA) is a place to process and return the waste to environmental media safely
for people and the environment.

Authority of Waste Management
In other laws and regulations it is mandatory for the Residential Area Management, commercial area, industrial
estate, special area, public facility, social facility, and other facilities shall provide separation facilities. As for

some of the authority in questions are.
1. Central Government Authority

OVERVIEW OF WASTE MANAGEMENT IN JAPAN
Types of Waste in Japan
Waste Management Law in Law no. 137/1970 classifies junk in Japan into two categories: (1). Industrial waste
and (2). General waste, as proposed in NREL (1993) that Waste is categorized as industrial waste or public
waste. The waste produced by the Waste Disposal Law or determined by the Order Cabinet is called industrial
waste. Currently industrial waste is divided into 19 groups. All waste that is not defined as industrial waste is
called general waste. General waste is essentially residential and waste wastes similar to residential waste but
is generated by businesses and institutions.
Garbage included in the category of public waste is all waste other than industrial waste, household waste, and
business waste resulting from the activities of institutions and commercial bodies.
Almost the same as in other countries, the waste in this cherry country, divided into two categories, namely the

category of industrial waste and general waste category.
1. Industrial waste is waste generated from production activities, and there are 19 kinds of waste. Industrial
waste - including industrial wastes - is further classified into two types: special controlled industrial waste
and other industrial waste.
2. General waste is all waste other than industrial waste, household waste, and business waste generated
from the activities of institutions and commercial bodies, and broadly divided into three, namely: general
controlled special rubbish, general waste and feces, and garbage Other common.

Industrial Waste in Japan
Industrial waste processing in Japan is regulated in Waste Management Law on the provisions of Law no.
137/1970, chapters III chapters 11 through 15, stating that industrial waste management is handed over as the
responsibility of the party who produces it.

Common Waste in Japan
Common waste is all waste other than industrial waste, household waste, and business waste generated from
the activities of institutions and commercial bodies. Broadly speaking, public waste in Japan is divided into
three types: (1) Controlled general rubbish, (2) Household waste and faeces, and (3) Other common waste
(NREL 1993).

Waste Sources in Japan
Almost the same as other countries, the source of waste in Japan can be grouped into two categories: housing
and non-housing (World Bank 1999). What is meant by housing waste in Japan is the garbage generated from
houses and apartments. Meanwhile, non-residential waste in Japan is usually generated from activity (1).
Commercial bodies such as shops, hotels, motels, restaurants, and markets; (2). Institutions such as offices,
schools, hospitals, prisons, and government departments; (3). Areas where construction of buildings such as:
renovation areas, destruction areas, and new building construction areas; (4). Open areas such as: streets,
alleys, parks, empty areas, playgrounds, beaches, highways, and recreation areas; (5). Area treatment plant
site; (6). Industrial area; (7). agricultural area; (8). Mining areas, and so forth.

Waste Management in Japan
Management or waste management is not just an activity undertaken to collect the garbage that is then
transported and disposed of to landfills (Wanless, 2008). Moreover, there is a series of stages that are always
present in it and have their respective functions that support the conduct of waste management. If there is one
stage that is not done, then the whole process can be disrupted. Therefore, the stages in the waste
management is a unified whole and presented to support each other.

Separation of Waste in Japan
Separation of waste components into flammable and non-flammable waste is common in Japan, since over
80% of municipality in Japan implements a waste separation system before the garbage is collected (Plastic
Waste Management Institute 1991). However, on the other hand it can be seen that the number of
municipalities that enforce the separation of recycling waste is relatively small: less than 30% of the
municipality-municipality present in Japan (NREL 1993).

Waste Collection in Japan
In Japan, municipality is instrumental in garbage collection, either directly or indirectly, and is also responsible
for the overall solid waste management contained in its juridical area (NREL 1993). Most household waste is
collected directly by municipally while the rest is indirectly by private companies that have contracts. The
underlying municipality in Japan regulates its waste by focusing on garbage collection. Municipality started
garbage collection by controlling the garbage directly from the source: households and companies where the
waste came from or produced.
Although garbage collection by door-to-door collection sometimes happens frequently, it is common for
garbage collection by "station-based collection" where garbage is carried by citizens to a designated collection
point.
The frequency of garbage collection varies depending on municipality policy, so each district may have
different collection schedules. The place of littering has usually been determined by municipality and has been
agreed upon by the locals, generally taking place on the sidewalk, under trees, or open areas that are all easily
accessible by garbage trucks. Meanwhile, large garbage disposal can be done by dialing certain fixed phone
numbers or carrying their own trash to a large garbage disposal facility, and usually charged for each item.

Waste Transport in Japan
Garbage transport in Japan is generally done by most municipalities at a predetermined time on a regular basis.
In addition, especially for large garbage, can also be done after a request from residents to transport it (NREL
1993). Waste transport is carried out with the aim of: to move or carry garbage collected by residents to a
temporary disposal site for processing, which will then be transported to landfills. In the implementation, used

7

aid facilities in the form of certain transportation that has been provided, and usually a large truck hauling
garbage.

Waste Processing in Japan
After all the garbage collects, the next step is waste processing. This stage aims to reduce the amount of waste
that will be sent to landfills. For without going through this stage, the amount that can be reduced will not be
significant.

Waste Processing in Japan





Shin Koto Incineration Plant is one of the largest garbage processing sites in Tokyo. At this company visit, we
had the opportunity to visit it. Despite the incinerator, the building is very clean, the air is fresh and beautiful
scenery. In addition we also have the opportunity to gain knowledge and insights about waste management so
that it can be an additional science for a time applied in Indonesia.

considered as waste that cannot be reused or recycled.

PESTLE ANALYSIS IN JAPAN
Although the region is prone to earthquake, but in fact Japan has become one of the developed countries in
the eastern region of Asia. Here is an analysis of political, economy, social, technology, legal, and environment
in japan.

Political Factors
The Japanese Government System is a constitutional monarchy. The emperor's power was restricted and only
derived mainly when performing official duties. The Emperor is the leader of the Imperial Family. It was
established by the Constitutional institution to be "the symbol of the State and the unity of the nation." The
emperor is not the leader of the Executive institution and has no authority relating to Government. Instead, the
cabinet, together with the Minister of State and Prime Minister, is an executive institution. The Prime Minister,
as head of government was appointed by Parliament and was crowned by an Emperor. This system of
government runs under an arrangement established by the Japanese Constitution since 1947. The current
japannese emperor is Akihito, and the current Japanese prime minister is Shinzo Abe.
Japan's parliament is a legislative institution. Using a two-room system, consisting of two assemblies, the Upper
House, and the Lower House. Members of parliament are elected directly by the people, sourced from
sovereignty.
The Supreme Court and other lower courts that form the Judicial branch, they have been detached from the
executive and legislative branches.

Economical Factors
Japan is in the top 5 for the largest economy in the world. So, the Japanese economy is very strong. Japan is a
country with a remarkable rate of economic growth. Its economy has grown since the 20th century, especially
after World War II. Now Japan has become one of the countries with the largest economic power in the world.
The free market economy and induced Japan is one of the largest in the world with the United States and China
in terms of international purchasing power parity. Its economy is highly efficient and competes in areas related
to international trade, but productivity is lower in agriculture, distribution, and service.
Having achieved the highest economic growth in the world from the 1960s to the 1980s, the Japanese
economy slumped drastically in the early 1990s, when the "bubble economy" fell. The supply of industry
leadership and technicians, highly educated and hard-working workers, huge savings and investments and the
intensive promotion of international trade and industry development have produced a mature industrial
economy.
Japan has low natural resources, but trade helps it gain resources for its economy.

Social Factors
Japan is a country famous for its various cultures including queuing cultures. Queues in the country are longer
than our country but they can queue up well because they are very respectful of the rights of others.
Actually in Japan there is no limit marking the direction of the queue but they can arrange it themselves neatly
because their cultural habits queue up in the flesh and create order by itself, and if there is someone who does
not fit in common in Japanese society, then that person will be considered strange person "hen na hito".
In addition, most Japanese choose to walk to MRT from one place to another. So, there will be many
pedestrians in Japan. Although it seems trivial, walking there is ethics in Japan. Trivia in Indonesia that is always
avoided by pedestrians in Japan when walking in public is smoking because it is considered unethical for
pedestrians in Japan is walking while smoking.

Technological Factors
Japan has a long history of technological development and industrialization that has a significant impact on
economic growth and country development. The combination of research (R&D) and the application of
technology was able to change the state of defeat that was previously destroyed in the second world war,
becoming one of the highest income countries in the world.
Evidence of technological progress in Japan is shown at least in the following:
1. Rapid Train Technologies
The Shinkansen fast train is an innovative and efficient technology from Japan that is very interesting and
spectacular. The Shinkansen train uses magnetic levitation technology to keep the train as high as 10
centimeters from the rail and drive up to 600 kilometers per hour.

2. Earthquake Resistant Technology
Japan is located between the Pacific Ocean so it is very vulnerable to earthquakes. Some of the earthquakes
that occurred earlier have become evidence that Japan must work to create a technology that is able to
cope with this earthquake. Therefore, then emerged earthquake resistant building technology. Earthquake
resistant technology will make existing buildings become flexible and not easily collapsed due to the effects
of the earthquake.
3. Paper Efficiency Technology
Next innovative technology from Japan is tissue paper efficiency technology. This is done by using a
machine capable of recycling office paper waste into toilet paper. With these findings then 40 sheets of A4
size paper can be converted into one roll of toilet paper within 30 minutes.
4. Futuristic Washing Machine Technology
This futuristic washing machine technology works without having to use water as its cleaning medium.
Cleaning without water itself is certainly very futuristic because it is not found in most washing machines.
This waterless washing machine itself is called AQUA Racooon which is the production of AQUA Japan. This
machine works by utilizing special ozone technology so that the dirty clothes will be clean and the smell will
come back fresh. With this technology also someone will be efficient and economical because they no
longer need to spend additional dry cleaning services.

Legal factors
In japan, many laws are based on the European system, such as Company law and Labor Law. You can find
employee laws in employment contracts, such as working hours, minimum wage laws, etc.
In addition, in Japan there are also legal rules that are unique and different from other countries, including:
1. Grabbed the queue
2. Smoking in the non-smoking area
3. Forcing a drink at a party
4. Become a scalper
5. Cut hair without permission
6. Disrupt both praying and funerals
7. Vomiting in a taxi
8. Spit in the garden
9. Receive more change than you should
10. Climb up the telephone pole
11. Drinking while riding a bicycle

Environment Factors
Japan's large population is concentrated around Tokyo. This is because most of the area on this island is
mountain and forest. This area is habitable and reduces the development of Japan to smaller and accessible
parts of the country. The soil is vulnerable to tsunamis and earthquakes. With tightly packed housing and
developments to accommodate high populations, they face the risk of colossal damage in the event of a
natural disaster.
Japan is famous for its clean environment, It turned out that this condition occurred in Japan not in a short
time, because Japan has also been in a dirty and dirty position before. Hygiene in Japan is influenced by Shinto
religious teachings. In Shinto Religion, how to get closer to god one of them by maintaining cleanliness. In
addition, in Japan taught hygiene awareness since childhood to become an inherent culture.





11

CROSS CULTURAL ANALYSIS IN JAPAN
Japanese culture is slightly influenced by Chinese culture so that acculturation occurs between immigrant
culture or China with native culture of Japan. For example in the field of architecture, the kingdom of Jaman
Yamato in Japan, in his kingdom there are architectural results of acculturation of Chinese culture and Japanese
culture. This shows that Chinese culture is in great demand by the Japanese people.
However, in the field of government, Japan did not change that resulted from acculturation with China. As in
the position of Tenno who is a direct descendant of Ameterasu. As well as regarding the beliefs of the Japanese
still hold on to the teachings of Shinto, unaffected by the teachings of Confucianism.
Japanese culture that has acculturated with Chinese culture, including:
1. Posts and Languages
With the Chinese being brought in by a Korean scholar named Wani, the Japanese adopted Chinese writing.
The way that is used is, the Japanese write and read Japanese words written by Chinese characters and with
