Abstract

In Bali, Kusamba village in Klungkung regency has been known as a Salt producer village. Despite its final premium product, it has not been marketed with attractive packaging to elevate its value. The salt has low iodine content, making it unattractive compared to most table salt products. Realising the potential, the Governor of Bali, Wayan Koster, suggested to improve its marketing strategy thus the salt farmer could yield a huge benefit once the product value is well-optimized. The idea was fully supported by the Regent of Klungkung, Nyoman Suwirta. Further, Suwirta pointed out the vision to bring the local product domestically and globally since the salt-making process in Kusamba has a sentimental taste historical value for the society. The salt industry is a strategic sector that needs to be developed, considering that Indonesia is still dependent on imported products despite having vast marine potential. Assistances from Government and private sector becomes a possible solution, to elevate the commodities standard thus the high-quality local salt might be accepted by Global communities.

Abstract

The Suwung landfill, located in Suwung Kauh Village, Denpasar City, has been gradually terminated since November 2022. Official closure began in March 2023 by the Bali Provincial Forestry and Environment Service and continued with the operation of three new integrated waste management sites in Denpasar City. Governor Koster argued that the previous policy related to the Suwung landfill was tactless. Its placement in Denpasar city discouraged the strategic area in Bali as well as the capital city of Bali. The growth of Bali's economy by 61% in 2019 was mostly due to the expansion of hotels, restaurants, and other tourism-related enterprises. It led to a rising figure of visitors, a movement of laborers, and increased population density on the island's business corridors. In contrast, Bali's dense population harms the ecosystem, essential to the island's reputation as a tourist destination. According to recent conversations, the trash management system will be accommodated at three Integrated Waste Treatment Sites (TPST) in Denpasar City beginning in June 2023. The TPS3R will no longer be built with the TPST, which is expected to be fully operational in June 2023.
