KOTA BHARU: Kelantan is set to adopt the Solid Waste Management and Public Cleansing Act 2007 (Act 672) in response to rising waste management costs, following a briefing with the National Solid Waste Management Department.
State Local Government, Housing, Health and Environment Committee chairman Hilmi Abdullah said, nevertheless, Kelantan aims to include a provision that would allow the state to appoint its own waste management contractors, following a model already implemented in Selangor and Penang.
