No plastic packaging is more effective way to limit use of plastic.
Tell me which commercial product is not using plastic material in one way or another?
Why so many types of plastic bottles (PET) being used indiscriminately and not charge 20 sen per bottle?
20 sen a plastic bag is simply easiest way to make money.
Every plastic bag sold, vendor can make 18 sen!

Govt should tax soft drink company 20 sen per PET bottle used at source.
Govt can also make a lot of money when clinic dispense pills in small self seal plastic beg.
LGE should make small research as how he can tax 20 sen for each packaging with plastic material, instead of cracking his head to increase revenue with SST.....

Another way to increase govt revenue is to impose plastic tax.
Tax rm 1000 per ton on plastic produced by petrol chemical plant like LCTI, Petronas Chemical, Sumitomo etc.
Tax F&N 20 sen plastic tax per PET bottle used.
Tax plastic factory 20 sen per piece, or 20 ringgit per kg.
Tax Perlis Plant, Yee Lee, Sime Darby, Felda etc etc 20 sen for each cooking oil in plastic bottle.

Surely LGE can make more money by Direct Plastic Tax and forego personal income tax if he is smart enough.

Alternately, govt can pass law criminalise use of plastic bag, just like how to fight dangerous drugs.
Penalty may some variance, instead of going to jail, whosoever found to use plastic bags in open is liable to fine rm 1000 for first time offender, rm 5000 for subsequent offences within next 12 months.

I believe Govt of Malaysia can make billions from the fine of plastic bag abuse.
