In an effort to increase public awareness regarding environment, PT Chandra Asri Petrochemical Tbk (Chandra Asri) on Tuesday, 21 June 21 2022 carried out waste management and disaster response socialization in Mangunreja Village, Puloampel District, Serang Regency, Banten. On this occasion, Chandra Asri's Emergency Response Team (ERT) presented material related to disaster management response and Chandra Asri's CSR team gave education regarding waste sorting and collection. Through the CSR team’s presentation, participants were educated about 7 RIC (Resin Identification Code) codes; symbols that distinguish types of plastic waste for easier recycling process. Participants were also introduced to Plas Kerosene which can be obtained by exchanging plastic waste at IPST Asari. This activity, which was attended by village officials and residents of Mangunreja Village, is a continuation of waste sorting programs that have been ongoing since 2021. Previously, similar activities had been carried out by residents of Cibaga Village through the Kelompok Pengumpul Sampah (Garbage Collector Group). Through this program, Chandra Asri hopes that Mangunreja residents will have new paradigm regarding waste management and are ready to face emergency situations.
