human mind – Assistant Deputy of Watershed Management and Water Resources Conservation Kemenko Marves M. Saleh Nugrahadi assessed that the handling of the Citaram River is faster than in other developed countries.
The reason is that it takes 30 years for a river in a country like Japan to be completely de-polluted.
Saleh said this on Wednesday, September 14, 2022, at the Jamboree Penyahelix (Jumpe) in the middle segment of the Citaram River in Muhara Village, Haurwangi Village/District, Cianjur Regency.
“I got an assignment to study in Japan in 2001-2004 and often cycled through the rivers in Japan. The rivers are clean and there can be fish,” he said.
