Port Klang used as dumping ground


Costly problem: According to the PKA, there are approximately 280 abandoned containers at the port containing mostly plastic and tyre scrap waste.

KLANG: Millions of ringgit in storage and disposal costs are lost due to irresponsible parties making Malaysia their dumping ground for unwanted waste.

Over the years, hundreds of containers filled with plastic wastes and scrap tyres – some of which are contaminated – have been shipped here and left abandoned at Port Klang.
