Jakarta’s climate efforts strengthened through C40 Cities involvement.

The Vice Chairman of Commission B of the Jakarta City Council assessed that the election of Jakarta Governor Pramono Anung as Vice Chairman of the C40 Cities Steering Committee will strengthen the Jakarta Provincial Government’s program in addressing the climate crisis.

Various programs and regulations implemented by the Jakarta Provincial Government have been directed towards strengthening climate action, including the implementation of green building policies for new buildings and the revitalization of existing buildings to support the net-zero emission target.

“Regarding the Governor’s strategic position in the global city network, it will certainly further strengthen his policies to encourage inclusive climate action towards the net zero emission target, both through regional government programs and regulations leading to it, such as green building policies for new buildings in Jakarta and the evaluation and revitalization of old buildings,” he said.

Several climate crisis management programs in the capital have been running well. One example is the development of public transportation, which is starting to be supported by the use of electric buses.

Furthermore, the use of electric vehicles by the public continues to increase in line with the Jakarta Provincial Government’s policy supporting the transition from fossil-fuel vehicles.

“The use of private vehicles in Jakarta has also shifted to electric vehicles, one of the reasons being the local government’s policy that supports this,” he added.

Furthermore, he encouraged the Jakarta Provincial Government to strengthen flood management efforts and develop a wastewater management network to improve surface water quality in Jakarta.

Governor Pramono’s involvement in the global city network also opens up opportunities for Jakarta to exchange experiences with other major cities around the world in addressing climate issues.

“The Governor’s involvement can also allow for global exchange of experiences, considering that this climate problem is essentially a problem faced by all major cities in the world and we can exchange experiences to overcome it,” he stated.
