Efforts underway to tackle growing waste issue in Brunei


BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN (Borneo Bulletin/Asia News Network): The management of waste soil and waste channelled to the Sungai Paku Landfill is set to end by 2030. Thus, efforts are being implemented to employ the latest, innovative methods, particularly for the Brunei River.

This was said by Permanent Secretary (Planning, Land Use and Environment) at the Ministry of Development (MoD) Dr Nor Imtihan binti Haji Abdul Razak at a press conference on the Minor Offences Act by the Brunei Darussalam Hygiene Issues Steering Committee at the An-Naura Hall of Yayasan Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah Complex on Thursday (Feb 11).
