Mayor Archival reiterates call on proper waste segregation

The drive towards the implementation of Solid Waste Management remains at the center of the administration's campaign, as Cebu City Mayor Nestor Archival opened 2026 with a strong reminder that cleanliness is not simply about systems but about discipline, respect, and mindset.

This comes as Archival urges residents to embrace segregation and proper disposal as a shared responsibility, pointing to Japan as an example, where even garbage trucks are kept spotless and waste disposal follows strict schedules, reflecting a culture of pride in public service.

Archival's call builds on his holiday social media posts, where he personally demonstrated how segregation works, showing how plastics can be shredded and transformed into eco blocks.

By explaining the process himself, he emphasized that the city's drive is not only about enforcement but also about practical, community-based solutions that turn discarded materials into new purposes.
