3. FROM EDITOR
E
very year, since 16 years ago, eve-
ry 22nd of March, we celebrate
World Water Day (WWD). In line
with launching of International Year of
Sanitation (IYS) 2008, World Water Day
this year also puts forward sanitation
theme. In Indonesia, it was agreed that
the WWD's theme is "Sanitation Con-
serves Water and Environment". Turning
Sanitation as the theme of WWD is the
right decision regarding the condition of
sanitation in Indonesia, which is far from
adequate and feasible. Around 77 percent
of the population in Indonesia still do not
have access to safe and proper sanitation
facility. This amount is more or less 9 ti-
mes of Jakarta's population. Do not ex-
pect our water and environment conditi-
on would be healthy if our sanitation is

lation still defecate openly; when most of
us have not fully understood the im-
portance of hand washing with soap as
the prevention of water borne diseases;
when solid waste is still disposed openly,
which become the source of diseases and
floods; when household's waste water is

come the source of diseases.

World Water Day XVI 2008
Commemoration in Indonesia
E
very year, Indonesia has never been left behind in cele-
brating World Water Day, which is observed every 22nd
of March. This year, the national committee for World
Water Day (WWD) 2008 had prepared a series of activities,
which was triggered by the launching of WWD 2008 on the 5th
of February 2008 at Department of Public Works.
In general, the agenda which was held by the national com-
mittee consist of awareness on water campaign and internation-
al year of sanitation, conferences, community movement,
encouragement of regional WWD, WWD exhibition, and
publication & documentation.
Exhibition and Conferences
One of the activities in celebrating WWD XVI 2008 at the
national level is exhibition and conference on water and sanita-
tion (Indonesia exhibition and conferences for WWD 2008).
The exhibition, which was held for three days from 27th-29th
March 2008, at Jakarta International Expo (JIEXPO), was held
by department of Public Works.
WWD this year brought forward the theme of "sanitation",
which is in line with the launching of International year of
Sanitation 2008. Accordingly, the theme of WWD at the nation-
al level is Sanitation Conserves Water and Environment.
The minister of Public Works, Djoko Kirmanto, in his open-
ing remarks of the exhibition reminded the danger of waste
against water sources. "It will be relevant with the condition of
our sanitation, which is poor, not to mention our water condi-
tion that is in critical condition" he said.
According to Djoko, speaking about water and sanitation is

The Demonstration was begun with a
long march from the Horse statue of Mer-

The demonstrators refuse all kinds of pri-

the government is selling water resources
to the private sectors through water
privatization.

The activity was held by Lampung Post daily newspaper and Co-

Bandar Lampung city.
The celebration was filled with distribution of plant seeds to
the community of highway user, who were driving through the
boulevard. The distribution of the seeds was based on the theme
of the activity, which is "Water for Life. Save Water by Planting
Trees".
With the commemoration of WWD, it is expected that all sta-
keholders pay their attention on how to: maintain the quality of
environment; revitalize the forest's functions as water reservoir,
revitalization of ground water as the source of clean water for
most of Indonesian's population and so forth; ensure water avai-

Launching of International Year of Sanitation 2008 in Philiphine
HUMBLE BUT MERRY
W
hen receiving offer from Eco-Asia Program to parti-
cipate the launching of International Year of
Sanitation (IYS) 2008 in Philippines, what was
being imagined was a huge launching. On the contrary, the event
was held in a humble manner in a small city of Mandaluyong, a
part of Manila's Metropolitan, but it was held in a merry and
inspirational mood. This article tries to describe the situation of
IYS launching.
Launching in Three Sessions
The launching of IYS 2008 was centred in Mandaluyong city,
Metro Manila, in the sessions, which was started at the city level,
and then national level and ended at the school level.
The launching at the city level was held in a sport field that
was turned into a stage. The selection of Monday as the day and
the sport field as the location for the launching was not decided
without a good reason. Mandaluyong city was chosen based on
the Mandaluyong's Mayor position as the chief of League of
Cities of The Philippines/LCP. It was expected that other city
members could also be inspired. Meanwhile, the selection of

T
he decrease of solid waste management performance in
these recent years has been influenced by the restruc-
ture of Indonesian government during reformation era,
regional autonomy, and economic crises that had happened in
all Indonesia. The change of policy focus in urban infrastructure
development, the strengthening of autonomy ego, the decrease
of regional funding, the decrease of community's income level
and awareness have become the trigger of the urban environ-
mental degradation, including the urban solid waste issue.
The degradation of the performance is shown by the
decrease of human resources capacity caused by the personnel
replacement that have never received any training in solid waste
sector; unclear status of solid waste management organization
caused by the maximum and minimum pattern policy change of
every agency; less budget allocation for solid waste manage-
ment, less income retribution; less services; less quality of waste
facilities, which most of them have become open dumping facil-
ities causing the increase of social friction; irresponsible solid
waste processing, which cause deaths, as the land slide case hap-
pened in Leuwigajah and Bantar Gebang solid waste facilities;
the absent of sanction for littering, and so forth.
Until now all process of solid waste processing ends in the
final waste facility, causing more burdens to the waste facility.
Beside the need of a large space, the cost of maintaining and the
environment also becoming more expensive. It all happens
