Flats residents doubt waste separation plan will work for them

Green initiative: The waste separation scheme will be made mandatory from September onwards.

WHILE residents of landed properties welcome the idea of separating domestic waste at the source, those living in high-rise buildings do not think it is feasible.

Some who were interviewed said they were not even aware of the mandatory “separation at source” plan that is to begin in September, while others say that indiscriminate dumping of garbage was still prevalent among such residents.
