Get rewarded by going green

In promoting a sustainable lifestyle and green living to achieve a low carbon city status for Petaling Jaya, the Jabatan Pengurusan Sisa Pepejal dan Pembersihan Awam (JPSPPA) of MBPJ held a Green Initiative Roadshow in SS20 Central Zone with the assistance of RA SS20 Central and KRT SS20. 

The Roadshow consists of a talk on conservation of energy and a demo on composting from CETDEM while Mr Lee Lih Shyan, Director of JPSPPA, MBPJ gave a briefing on green initiatives.

One of the MBPJ initiatives is the Assessment Tax Rebate Scheme that offers up to 100% annually for residents who implement eco-friendly measures on electricity, water, bio-diversity, transportation, waste and other green initiaves in their homes.  

MBPJ will also be giving a compost bin to any of the residents who attended the roadshow and have an interest in composting.

For more details on the Tax Rebate Scheme, please visit MBPJ Tax Rebate Scheme   Closing date is 30 July 2016.

Our sincere appreciation to Mr Lee Lih Shyan for bringing the roadshow to SS20 and also to Cik Jamaliah, our councillor who took time off from her busy schedule to give her support to the event. 

Most of all, thank you to all our guests and neighbours who sacrificed their Sunday morning to come and learn to be more eco-friendly.
