A recent video posted on Facebook has left residents in east Honiara, particularly those living near the AJ City Mall in the eastern part of the city concerned. The footage shows a large pile of rubbish accumulating just beside the mall, slowly turning into what appears to be an unofficial dumpsite. This unsightly and growing heap of trash is not only damaging the environment but is also becoming a significant eyesore for the local community.
Many are now calling on responsible authorities, particularly the Honiara City Council (HCC), to take action and address the situation. However, some residents believe that the responsibility lies closer to home, with the business owners and management of the AJ City Mall. “They should have done something earlier to stop people from dumping their rubbish here,” said one local resident, expressing their anger at the lack of intervention from the mall’s operators.
One of the community leaders said that it is the responsibility of individuals to abide by the laws and maintain cleanliness in their surroundings. “This is not a dumpsite,” they said, urging the public to do the right thing and dispose of waste properly.
As the pile of rubbish continues to grow, both community members and business owners alike are hoping that the authorities or AJ Mall management will take immediate action to prevent further environmental damage.
The situation is becoming more than just an inconvenience. It is a serious issue that threatens the well-being of the community and the beauty of the area.
Residents are now waiting for a solution to restore their neighborhood and prevent this carelessness from spreading further.
