Ban carried out in stages to educate traders and consumers

MPSJ's move to phase out polystyrene proved to be a popular move. Its president Datuk Nor Hisham Dahlan is seen handing out reusable containers to visitors at the ramadan bazaar earlier this year.

SELANGOR has made a bold decision this year to ban the use of polystyrene in 2017 despite the backlash from traders.

All 12 councils gradually phased out polystyrene food packaging and started the move at Ramadan bazaars.
