- Some places are still facing with

difficulties in propaganda due to

people’s awareness

- Lack of cooperation from

enterprises (they are not under

control of street block or ward)

- In pilot wards, with large area,

many markets, high density with

different kind of people, people’s

awareness is still low, this cause

difficulty for project maintenance

- Promoting

propaganda at each

household through

head of block and

member of women

union

- Keeping check,

remind and counting

mark for competition

in each block

DIFFICULTIES AND SOLUTIONS

The project needs paying attention from authorities, responsibility should be defined clearly.

Practically, closely cooperation among authorities, mass-organizations, street blocks play important role for success of project.

There should have budget to maintain source separation, have support mechanism for 3R collaborator.
