Would you pay for your plastic bag in Malaysia?
Would you pay for your plastic bag in Malaysia?
If you think I'm joking, I'm not. On average, every 2 people that come out of carrefour subang (for example) carry 3-4 bags. A person, on average, may use in excess of 20 bags, big and small. Now, say the government imposes taxes on plastic bags. Hypermarkets start charging people 50 cents per large bag instead of wantonly grabbing a bag and charging them for it. By very simple economic principles, plastic bag use will drop very dramatically. And it works. shops in Ireland charges 15 euro cents per bag now, and usage has dropped 95%. Australia is trying to the same thing. Carrying your own bag is no hassle; whatever item I can shove into my backpack I won't ask for an extra bag (i'm a college student). An empty plastic bag can easily fit into a pocket if you don't have a bag. Think about it. And got any better ideas?

Australia is trying to do the same? I am not aware of this. here we have 'go green' bag. almost all grocery stores sell them. of course we have to pay around 99 cents for a bag (im just guessing.it was a really long time ago) but we can use over and over again. its better than plastic bag bcoz it is environmentally friendly. u can also shove it in ur handbag. u can scrunch it, punch it, fold it, and u can still use it. here is the bag. http://i.treehugger.com/files/go-green-bag.jpg i dont know if this is available in malaysia.

I will, but i prefer bringing my own bag. I won't ask for plastic bags if the items i bought is small enough to put in my bag.
3 :
I'd usually say 'no' to plastic bags if I'm buying items I could carry on my own and I'll keep them in my bag (yeah I usually carry a pouch or a day pack with me, no joke)... Believe it or not, we ARE paying for the plastic bags. Its all in those little numbers we often overlook on the price tag and receipt, and it doesn't say 'plastic bags' of course...
4 :
Absolutely agree with you. Many countries now make consumers pay for plastic bags or paper bags by law, to reduce wasteage, recyling, and for environmental friendliness. And all such bags are made from recycleable and environmentally friendly materials as well. I'm for it 100%. And I can see taht Malaysia should be made into law for these reasons as the wasteage and environmetal problems for plastic bags is very very bad.
5 :
for sure I will pay, if I have the option to provide my own. Anything to keep our wonderful country clean and pristine, I am all for.
6 :
I think that in Malaysia, it is relatively convenient for consumers not to be given plastic bags. For example, Giant hypermarket always has their carpark close to exits where you can just reload your merchandise back into the trolley and wheel it to your car. (Majority of us drives, dont we.) PLUS, hypermarkets do not charge for the use of trolleys which means that we do not need to return it to specified locations and we can just chuck your trolley aside when we load our merchandise into our car boot. I think government should start by implementing "Green days" where plastic bags will not be given for free and encourage people to bring their own shopping bags. Slowly. the government can educate citizens on the Reduce principle in the 3Rs (Reduce, reuse, recycle) However, we still need plastic bags for our trash. Thus, charging for plastic bags results in a reduce in supply of plastic bags in households and may create other problems. Much is required to be done before the tax is finally implemented. Government must ensure that citizens understand WHY and HOW they can practise 3Rs. Follwed by implementing this slowly such as giving plastic bags only on request or NOT giving on certain designated days.
7 :
Whatever said and done, it will never happen in Malaysia. Malaysians are just ignorant and have no feeling towards the environment. The only day Malaysia will change is that a large meteor hit Malaysia killing the 24 million population leaving behind 2 million population to come up with a new bred.

Better start using paper backs or bringing own bag for carrying luggage..

In order to get the pill you need to go to a clinic...........otherwise you die
2 :
RU-486 is what its called, pricing i cant help u with
3 :
I'm sorry, I don't know. I think it's hard to find considering that they are still testing it, and developing it to make sure it's safe, and effective. You can easily just have a surgical abortion, though. I don't know if they have planned parenthood there, but they should have cheaper, safe, and discreet abortion clinics. good luck!
4 :
look just because you made the mistake and gotten pregnant doesnt mean you have to kill that innocent baby inside you it didnt do anything wrong and if your man really loved you he wouldnt make you get an abortion you should reconsider your relationship and think about raising that baby with or with out him i dont believe in abortions because unless you was raped there be no reason to abort if you dont want the baby at least give birth to it and then give in up for adoption dont kill theinnocent baby love it give it a chance at life like your mother gave you a chance she didnt abort you so why abort your baby its not right to kill for your wrong doing
5 :
Why send away, it's just birth control pills and gravol. Check the web for dose.
6 :
Guess what? Learn to Love and Respect yourself first, and have a decency to respect other people lives' esp. the baby you are carrying now. You do have a choice... and, don't let your BF do the thinking and decision... think girl, think! ~And, I won't tell you :P And, yeah... dump your boyfriend... pronto!!!
7 :
well sounds to me like u should have been on birth control the first time u got pregnant, i don't believe in abortions because to me it's the same thing as murder and as for your boyfriend goes he needs to get a vasectomy and quit making babies that he doesn't want, i think he's a jerk and for u to even consider abortions makes u look like an immature person who can't keep her legs closed, quit having sex and getting pregnant when u don't even won't it, u should feel privileged to even be able to have a baby because theirs alot of women that can't have kids and they want one so bad and here you go trying to kill another innocent life, u should be ashamed.......
8 :
I'm pro-choice and everything but I don't believe in abusing the right to. If you keep gettting pregnant why won't you use a condom or get on the birth control pill. If you keep getting abortions you ruin the chances of getting pregnant again-meaning when you want kids you can't have them. So then you regret having abortions. Also, I think your boyfriend is a jerk for MAKING you have an abortion, its your choice. You can only get the abortion pill at a clinic. They have to monitor you for a week or something can seriously go wrong. You don't just take the pill everytime you get pregnant, stop abusing it and tell your boyfriend to cover his penis. If you're not going to be responsible then don't have sex.
9 :
I think you should have the baby.If you realy dont want it then put it up for adoption.IT would be hard but its better than killing the baby.There are plenty of ppl out there that cant have children and would give anything to have one.
10 :
first the morning after pill is only good for up to 72 hr after intercorse and about a clinic what ever you do dont go and have a abortion that baby feels it just look on websites they show pic of what that baby looks like after it was aborted thats part of you a baby is way more important then a man i got prego with my first kid at 19 and had her at 20 now im 24 with a 4 yr old girl and a 18 month old boy and thats the best thing ever being a mom ust remember that baby will love u always and always be there for you a b/f may not be there he could breake up and leave never make that mistake but i have no prob with morning after just abortions pluse theres plenty of ppl willing to adopt a new baby and there is a safe haven in hospitals so if you dont want it just leave it with them but once you look in that sweet babys eyes you would be happy you have him or her and love them always sorry so long but there is no point in abortion when so many ppl are willing to take care of unwanted babys any questions e-mail me shylilly_665@yahoo.com

No man is worth the life of your own son or daughter! If you don't want to abort your child, you DON'T have to do it! You DO have a choice. No one can force you to abort. Your boyfriend obviously cares more about himself than about you and your babies. He should not be asking you to kill your child and put your life and health at risk just to avoid responsibility. You may love your boyfriend, but your baby is also depending on you, her mommy, for love and protection. Please don't let her down! You can still do the right thing. If your boyfriend REALLY loves you, he will accept your decision and come to love the child, too. If he proves that he doesn't really love you by asking you to do this, why would you want to be with him? You need to be stronger than this. You need to love and protect your baby.
