The Auki township, Malaita Province now has a new rubbish dump site at Gwaigeo in Central Kwara’ae.

It will help support the Auki Town Council department in collecting rubbish around Auki town. 

The new rubbish dump site is a two-hectare space that has already been cleared, cleaned, and is ready to be used as a rubbish dumping site.

According to Malaita Provincial Secretary, Eric George, the new dump site is situated on the province’s land at Gwaigeo in Central Kwara’ae. 

He said the province’s survey team, alongside the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA), did the clearing and cleaning of the area.

“We now have a new rubbish dump site at Gwaigeo, and it is ready for use.

“It is good that the dump site was located in the province’s asset. Now that we have a new dump site that is ready for use, I encourage everyone to collect their rubbish and transport it to the new site,” he said.

The new dump site will provide solutions to the concerns and questions raised by the residents of Auki town as to why the department responsible for rubbish collection hasn’t been collecting rubbish for the last two months.

On the same note, Auki Central Market Management is also encourages vendors to carry fewer leaves from their produce as it also contributes to rubbish.
