Guan Eng calls on BN to support anti-plastic campaign

Lim Guan Eng, the Chief Minister of Penang has called on the opposition of Penang to help and support the Pakatan Rakyat led state government in their implementation of the anti-plastic campaign set to start this year. The state government has banned free plastic bags in the campaign, much to the protest of the MPMA (Malaysian Plastics Manufacturers Association) where he is calling on Gerakan, the BN (Barisan Nasional) component party to rally with the state government for a noble cause.

He said “It is expected for the MPMA to object the initiative to ban free plastic bags every day, because it will affect their business. However the state government wonders why the Penang BN and Gerakan refused to support the state’s green initiative and chose to side with MPMA. Can the Penang and Gerakan BN fully support the PR state government initiative to ban plastic bags every day and reject MPMA’s pro plastic campaign? At the same time, the state government saved in of solid waste disposal, which costs RM50 per metric tonne or RM5,000 for 100 metric tonne,”
