Indoaquatic Supports Food Security through Catfish and Tilapia Cultivation Using the Biofloc System

Catfish is a popular source of protein in Indonesia. Pecel lele has become a favorite dish in many regions, and for some, it is considered “comfort food” due to its delicious taste and its suitability for any occasion.

To meet the demand for high-quality animal protein and support national food security, Indoaquatic has introduced an innovative method of cultivating catfish and tilapia using the biofloc system. This technology utilizes microorganisms to maintain water quality and nutrient levels, allowing the fish to grow healthier, cleaner, and more nutritious. In addition, the biofloc system is more environmentally friendly and economically efficient than conventional farming methods.

Catfish cultivation at Indoaquatic offers several advantages. By using 100% pelleted fish feed, the resulting catfish meat is tastier, cleaner, and free of unpleasant odors. Before distribution, the fish are carefully sorted to ensure optimal quality. The harvesting process is also faster—taking only about three months—which increases economic value.

Another strength of Indoaquatic’s catfish and tilapia farming is its high market demand, especially in the Greater Jakarta area. Tilapia enjoys strong demand among households, restaurants, and hotels due to its variety of sizes and widely favored meat quality, while catfish dominates daily consumption because of its affordability and stable availability. With its superior product quality and modern farming system, Indoaquatic not only meets community consumption needs but also contributes to sustainable and environmentally friendly food security.

Junk Revolution: Jangjo’s Concrete Step in Tackling the Waste Crisis

Jangjo has initiated the Junk Revolution, a movement aimed at transforming the way we sort, manage, and process waste in a structured and sustainable manner. This initiative emerged in response to the growing accumulation of improperly sorted waste in public spaces, which poses a threat to the environment and burdens landfills.

Through educational campaigns at shopping center like Gandaria City and Kota Kasablanka, Jangjo encourages visitors to start sorting their waste at the source. Education is provided through signage, tenant training, and interactive booths.

The sorting process takes place directly at the campaign sites, involving tenants, visitors, and area operations staff. Collected waste is processed at Jangjo’s facility using the JOWI system for efficiency and transparency, before being further handled by partners. In collaboration with Indocement, waste is converted into RDF (Refuse-Derived Fuel), while Magalarva transforms food waste into animal feed using Black Soldier Fly (BSF) technology.

At Plaza Indonesia and FX, the organic waste sorting program has significantly reduced food waste that could potentially pollute the environment.

Currently, Jangjo processes up to 50 tons of waste per day from commercial areas across Jakarta. During the Astranauts 2025 event in Jakarta, Joe Hansen, Founder and CEO of Jangjo, stated that a balance between humanity and nature can be achieved through technological innovation and sustainability—exactly the spirit behind the Junk Revolution.

Family Vacation Tips for a Hassle-Free Trip to Bali

Going on a vacation with family is always exciting, but it often comes with its own set of challenges, especially if you’re planning a road trip to Bali with your own vehicle from your hometown. The long drive can be exhausting, your car needs to be in top condition, and there’s always the risk of a breakdown or other technical issues along the way. Instead of being a relaxing getaway, the trip could end up being stressful!

So, rather than dealing with all that hassle, why not just rent a car in Bali? Especially if you’re traveling with family, renting a car can be a far more practical and comfortable solution.

Here are some major benefits of renting a car for your family vacation in Bali:

  1. Easy Access to Tourist Destinations
    Bali has countless exciting places to visit: exotic beaches, unique temples, hidden gems like waterfalls, and trendy shopping and culinary spots. Renting a car makes it easy to explore them all without having to rely on public transport or ride-hailing apps.
  2. More Flexibility
    With a rental car, you’re not tied to a strict schedule. Want to start the day with a leisurely breakfast at your villa? Or spend the afternoon and evening at the beach? You can do it all at your own pace. This flexibility is especially important if you’re traveling with young children who need a slower rhythm.
  3. Better Privacy
    A rental car offers your family a private space. You can choose between a self-drive or a car with a driver. Either way, you’ll enjoy a peaceful and comfortable journey. Your belongings are also safer since they stay in your private vehicle.
  4. Fits Your Budget
    Another great advantage of renting a car is the wide range of vehicle options to suit your needs and budget. Many car rental companies offer various vehicle types at competitive prices.
