PERAKIANS have less than two months to go before a total ban on the usage of plastic bags comes into effect throughout the state, especially in supermarkets, hypermarkets and sundry stores.

The current once-a-week plastic bag ban on Saturdays will be extended to seven days a week starting June this year.
