IPOH: Perak is ready to hold discussions with the Federal Government on adopting the Solid Waste and Public Cleansing Management Act 2007 (Act 672), says exco member Sandrea Ng Shy Ching.
PETALING JAYA: The door is always open for the remaining states which have yet to adopt the Solid Waste and Public Cleansing Management Act, says the Housing and Local Government Ministry.
With interstate travel and open houses allowed during this year’s Hari Raya Aidilfitri celebrations - after a hiatus of two years due to the Covid-19 pandemic - solid waste operators and activists are understandably worried about the growing pile of household waste, particularly plastic waste.
