SEREMBAN: All local authorities in Negri Sembilan have been told to aggressively enforce a rule banning the use of single-use plastic bags, straws and polystyrene, says state exco member J. Arul Kumar.
The state local government development, housing and transport committee chairman said it was time the rule was enforced as sufficient time has been set aside to educate the people through campaigns, including on social media.
