Plastic Bag Price

ON February 21, the government announced a new policy on the use of plastic bags in retail stores: Customers shopping in supermarkets will now be charged Rp200 for every plastic bag they use to carry goods home.

The new law is a concrete step made to minimize the volume of plastic litter on land and in sea. Indonesia is today second only to China in terms of plastic marine pollution.
