Tonnes of plastic waste dumped in Malaysia will be returned to UK, US and others

Last year, China banned plastic waste imports as part of an initiative to clean up its environment. Yeo told a press conference that one UK recycling company had exported more than 50,000 metric tonnes of plastic waste in about 1,000 containers over the past two years. Malaysian Minister of Energy, Science, Technology, Environment and Climate Change Yeo Bee Yin shows samples of plastics waste shipment from Australia on May 28, 2019.
