RM500 reward for info on garbage dumping

THE Subang Jaya Municipal Council (MPSJ) is offering RM500 to anyone who can give information that leads to catching the culprits behind the garbage woes in USJ 2.

Recently, StarMetro reported that rubbish including waste such as broken sofas, chairs and unwanted household items could be seen dumped in various spots.

Resident Siti Hajjar, 52, believes that this is the work of outsiders because she had seen a truck unloading sofas and other items by the roadside once.

She claimed that a truck comes to collect the items but has not seen it for a month now.

Another resident Satwant Singh, 66, said the residents were also contributing to the mess by throwing their rubbish far away from their houses and not in their own bins.

MPSJ blames the situation on the lack of responsibilty and concern of residents over the cleanliness of their area.

The stationing of the Recycle Shed by the Charity Organization has also become an eyesore with unresponsible & inconsiderate people dumping their household rubbish around the shed. To make matters worse the scavengers (mainly Alam Flora workers)going through the rubbish, picking items that can be recycled and leaving the mess around. MPSJ should first get their supervisors to go round and catch the contractors sitting, talking, sleeping, collecting recyclable items etc. during their working time.
