Plastic waste is the primary concern for many countries worldwide. In Indonesia, the issue remains a problem that requires greater attention. Although several regulations have been implemented to reduce plastic waste, efforts and strategies are essential to maximizing the outcomes of the laws. Plastic waste, if it is not disposed of properly, brings adverse effects on health. By that, the regional government is urged to come up with policies to reduce plastic waste. This paper discussed: First, the issues of plastic and people's needs for plastic in today's era. Second, it explored the policies of the regional government in developing a waste management program to combat the problem. The data of this empirical juridical research came from the interview and focus group discussion involving several samples selected purposively. © 2021 The Authors, published by EDP Sciences.
