So now need to waste money do active monitoring of a known issue and easily done? The money come from consumers leh. Hawker centre canned drinks already up 60 cents!

So poorly implemented i dunno what to say. So many years still come up something not suited for SG context and just blindly accept all the known flaws.

Saw like this couple brought like 6 or 7 HUGE bags
Full of bottles
One bag like 40 to 60 bottles and each is packed full to the brim

Of course once they do their returns, you can forget about your turn
Later I looked at machine
From less than 50% they maxed it almost to the full

Maybe they are doing restauranting
Cos don't look like dumpster diving

But why must accumulate?
Hit 1 bag or 2 then just clear
Not accumulate and spend 30 minutes clearing
I laugh at such people when machine is spoiled

The objective to recycle bottles. Every bottle the uncle throws inside get collected and recycled. Objective is met.

If operator decides to punish the uncle, means it discourages recycling over all. It is ownself shoot ownself leg.

However, the design of this scheme is big failure. A very foolish idea and totally not well thought out properly.

I think foreign worker just want smooth the process right? Why would BCRS think there’s a need to fraud?
