Just too glad that our city had implemented the No plastic bag policy. I hope we will have a cleaner city. Plastic bags are the major cause of flooding and contributes to an unhealthy environment. How about your region have your government effected a move to minimize or totally stop using plastic bags?

@amadeo saints are not honored in their own place. Sooner or later they will realize that.

While the bill is yet to be passed, maybe you can encourage friends to refrain from using plastic bags and suggest that they bring eco bags when they do their grocery.

We are all involved in this cause, so we should support every effort shown by our government or some concerned organizations towards this.

Littering the plastic bags, yes I agree with you. It's the improper disposal of these plastic bags that's causing the problem resulting in clogged drainage. But we need to get through the root of the problem as we cannot guarantee a hundred percent following on anti-littering law.
