Terjemahan teks

Ayo Kita Buat Kota Menjadi Bersih dan Segar

Kota yang bersih dan segar pasti akan membuat penduduknya sehat. Setiap pagi terutama di musim kemarau, semua jalan harus disiram dengan air bersih dan disapu oleh pekerja pemerintah daerah atas instruksi walikota.

Untuk melindungi orang dari polusi berat yang disebabkan oleh mobil, truk dan motor, pohon yang cukup harus ditanam di sepanjang jalan. Setiap bangunan atau rumah di kota harus dikelilingi oleh pohon-pohon pendek dan kecil yang memiliki bunga berwarna-warni.

Kebiasaan buruk dan tidak tepat yang menimbulkan kerugian, seperti merokok dan membuang sampah di sembarang tempat, harus segera dihentikan.

Walikota harus memikirkan cara untuk mendidik masyarakat, sehingga mereka menyadari betapa pentingnya kebersihan dan kesehatan. Lebih banyak WC umum sangat dibutuhkan.

Alangkah bijaknya jika walikota memutuskan sejumlah denda yang harus dibayar oleh mereka yang melanggar peraturan pemerintah tentang masalah kebersihan. Misalnya, seorang pria yang buang air kecil tidak di toilet, merokok tidak di ruang merokok, atau membuang sampah di jalan harus didenda. Selain mengotori lingkungan dengan puntung rokok, merokok juga akan menimbulkan polusi dan penyakit paru-paru buruk bagi orang lain.

Jadi, kebiasaan buruk dan sikap tidak sopan harus segera dihentikan; jika tidak, kota akan menjadi kotor, tidak sehat, tercemar parah dan tidak akan pernah menarik turis asing dan bahkan domestik.
