The 4th
Taskforce meeting was held in Penang Island on 21 December 2011 following the
last Taskforce meeting on December 5, 2011. The members of DOE Headquarters,
DOE Penang and MPPP discussed present e-waste flow based on some results from surveys,
targeting e-waste generators, recyclers, e-waste collection centres authorized
by MPPP and retailers, etc. The e-waste flow in Penang Island is being
described with quantities and traded prices.
We also
discussed that all relevant actors should share the current e-waste flow for
discussing appropriate e-waste collection systems in Penang Island. For this, the
Taskforce meeting decided to hold a workshop in Penang Island on January 17, 2012.
It is expected that all relevant actors share their opinions and discuss the
future e-waste collection system based on the current e-waste flow.
