E-waste: Electronics goods producers, retailers to face collection targets, Government & Economy – THE BUSINESS TIMES

Under such an approach known as Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR), the government will set collection targets for these companies, which if not met could attract fines, said Minister for the Environment and Water Resources Masagos Zulkifli on Thursday.
