GEORGE TOWN: Some irresponsible people have set up a “makeshift” recycling centre behind a Tamil primary school to collect recyclable waste trapped by a trash boom across a river.
The mounds of collected waste have created a mosquito breeding site that has plagued the school children of SJK(T) Ramathasar for years, on top of the foul smell.
