The Yangon City Development Committee and the Department of Urban Environmental Conservation and Sanitation have urged shopping malls and high-end stores within the Yangon Metropolitan Municipality to cooperate in implementing the 4 categories of waste separation.
The four types of waste are separated into green bins for wet waste such as kitchen utensils and personal hygiene products, yellow bins for dry waste such as paper, cardboard, scrap metal, linen, and wood, blue bins for plastic waste, and red bins for hazardous waste such as electronic waste, light bulbs, insecticides, and household chemical waste.
In waste management, systematic separation of waste can help protect the environment, facilitate waste collection, and enable waste to be reused.
