This type of policy don't know what kind of brain can comes out? Really made a lots of people boiling. Heng Ah due to Dr asked me to stop drinking sugar added drinks. Nowadays I don't buy canned or bottle drinks. Mainly on plain water or Teh O Kosong. No Coffee O Kosong becos I don't like coffee's taste that without any sugar. Haha

Nothing new...
KPI hit n leave the shxt behind
Heng I dont drink canned or bottle drinks outside

 

[titusilvering]

the idea is to make you mafan to claim back the small money, but everyone else in the system making big money

The system will fail cuz majority don't care. Then they say people are doing it.

pretending to go green
pretending to recycle

 

[jasvonvios]

If you buy can drink at food court, would you bring home to recycle?

I feel that bcrs is just form of tax.

 

[MizunoVolley]

Drink seller parallel import drink cans thus these do not have the bcrs logo but sell at bcrs price?

The problem is the 10¢ quantum is too small that many bochap. They should increase the quantum to maybe $2, then people will really start taking it seriously.

You don't keep so long. What if next time G announced that barcode discontinued or the whole scheme terminated?

Just from 5sen prastic bags they alr earn millions , which "trouble" ppl until sextent they rather carry a carton of 30s egg and some small groceries by both hands

These ppl think they saved the earth by 5sen , but some "entity" earn millions from it

Maybe the whole idea is not meant for saving the earth from the beginning....

 

[alpha29]

The machines they deployed also need electricity, not to mention maintenance and collection of the cans, which will need staff and van driven around to collect.

Isn't it creating more waste?

They saw the results of the 5 cent profit from plastic bags. NTUC made millions from it. Now use same logic to canned n bottle drinks.
