Fishermen selling plastic bottles dumped on Sg Tebrau riverbanks to make ends meet


Raay: Volunteers collected about 30 tonnes of rubbish from Sungai Tebrau during a clean-up in 2019.

IN THE 1970s until 1990s, Sungai Tebrau was bountiful with fish and crustaceans.

Sadly today, the 46km waterway has turned into one of the dirtiest and most polluted rivers in Johor.
