Government backbencher calls for reduction of plastic use in food service

KUALA LUMPUR: The government should encourage restaurants, hotels, and hawkers to use recyclable food containers, says a government backbencher

"Items like these should be encouraged by the government and not just displayed for exhibition purposes to show to MPs," said Teresa Kok (PH-Seputeh), who brought recyclable paper food containers to the Dewan Rakyat.
