KUALA LUMPUR mayor Tan Sri Mohd Amin Nordin Abd Aziz has ordered that all charity recycling boxes in the city be removed immediately, saying though the initiative was a positive one, it was no longer viable.

The boxes will be stored by Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) for a week and if the owners fail to collect them within that time, they will be sent for compacting and sold as scrap.
