A country’s seriousness in implementing a policy to provide better air quality for its people may be judged on
whether: (1) the policy and its implementation details are reflected in laws, regulations and plans; (2) enough
resources are provided to implement it; and (3) the laws, regulations and plans are actually implemented.
This Chapter discusses the main laws, regulations, policies and plans that are the basis for air quality
management in Indonesia; an overview of the management of pollution from motor vehicles, industries, and
area sources; and the power and resources of smaller cities to develop and implement clean air action plans.
