Not up to us to check source of plastic waste, says Perak DoE


IPOH: It is not within the Perak Environment Department’s jurisdiction to ascertain where companies source for plastic waste which is then sent to a recycling firm here, says state director Norazizi Adinan.

Its duty was to ensure that the deal was done legally and that no toxic or hazardous materials were transported here, he added.
