SEVENTY stall operators in the SS2 Food Court received new food waste segregation bins, while 10 of the stalls had new grease traps installed as part of a “Waste Segregation and Oil and Grease Trap” initiative.

The collaboration was between Heineken Malaysia’s GAB Foundation, Petaling Jaya City Council (MBPJ) and environmental NGO, the Global Environment Centre (GEC).
