Abstract

This article discusses the scope and limitations of waste management in ASEAN countries, such as overflowing landfills and weak infrastructure. It discusses blockchain technology to help improve transparency, efficiency, and accountability. This article will investigate the inefficiency of waste management, investment barriers, and the role of public education in changing these attitudes. The information in this article is based on secondary data analysis, statistical reports, and documents obtained from various relevant document sources. Finally, it would suggest that a policy regarding waste governance be implemented using blockchain, public awareness campaigns and pilot programs for testing its efficacy in transforming waste management into a viable activity to meet SDGs.
