From December 1, 2012, the Penang State Government enforced a ban on the use of polystyrene containers in all food and beverage outlets as well as in all supermarkets and hypermarkets. The awareness campaign against polystyrene containers started in 2009, and in 2010 the State Government encouraged the public to switch to recyclable containers. The ban is part of the State’s ‘Cleaner, Greener Penang Initiative’ to live sustainably.
