THE Taman Tasek Jaya Rukun Tetangga in Ipoh has set up a recycling corner to encourage its residents to segregate their waste and improve waste management in the neighborhood.

Its chairman Ahmad Zainuddin Abdul Latif said they started the initiative in January and recycling would reduce the amount of waste ending up in rivers.
