IPOH: A controversy is brewing over towering mounds of plastic waste in what a British news website claims to be a jungle but is actually the storage area of a recycling factory in an industrial zone.

Reporters who went to the site at the IGB Industrial Area in Tasek saw plastic, cardboard and fabric waste piled up higher than a man’s height and on area almost half as big as a football field.
