Abstract

Household solid waste is a major environmental issue, not only in big cities but also in suburban areas. Setia Asih Village location is in Kecamatan Tarumajaya, Kabupaten Bekasi. Bekasi is closed with Jakarta, and it has unique characteristics, such as the dual market economy, administration system, and the local people's social culture. Setia Asih Village has tremendous unmanaged household solid waste. It covers the land and the river. This research paper used a qualitative approach due to the limited statistical data on the village level in Indonesia. The preliminary observation showed that local people do not know about managing their household solid waste. Their local government does not have any responsibility to manage the household solid waste on the village level. It becomes the local people's responsibility. There is a lack of coordination among stakeholders in household solid waste management at Setia Asih Village. I conducted the solid waste management training for 300 people and Focus Group Discussion (FGD) with each Dusun (lower level than a village) representative. I found that local people have solutions to solve their household solid waste problem. The local government builds a new waste bank as Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) from state-owned enterprises.
