Ever wonder why countries like Malaysia would never remain clean??? Also the increasing number of landfills that are just reaching maximum capacity within a short time frame is due to the volume of garbage that is not recycled. There's a simple explanation to this. Unfortunately, the government has failed to realize this simple solution. There are just insufficient number of trash cans around city and all walk ways. Further more, when was the last a Malaysian saw a recycle bin in the neighbourhood??? Never rite!!! Well thats the reason why Malaysia will always have this problem with waste disposal. Check out a city like Melbourne. There's a trash can like every 200 meters you walk. Not only trash cans, most of the time a recycle bin too. If the entire Penang population stopped throwing rubbish for one day and sweep up the streets, it would just take another day for it to return to original. Why?? Because, there aren't enough collection bins located, so people like you and me just resort to throwing rubbish outside on the five-footway or through the car window. A park near my Uni, check out the pictures...
Thats a clean park by Penang standards, and very well organized too
Thrash cans
The recycle bin!!! Non-existant in Malaysia!!!
