Rawang Tolak Incinerator Network (RTI) has expressed deep dismay over a response provided by the Selangor government in the state assembly regarding an allocation for observing International Zero-Waste Day this year.

It said that the written reply in the state assembly given to Rawang assemblyperson Chua Wei Kiat indicated that only five resource-rich local councils - Shah Alam, Petaling Jaya, Subang Jaya, Ampang Jaya, Hulu Selangor - received some funding which amounted to RM172,000.
