Illegal e-waste is not a new issue in Malaysia, but recent events have brought it back into the headlines in a big way, from enforcement raids to high-profile investigations and new policy measures.
In a previous episode, BFM spoke about the situation here in Malaysia and the recent developments that have brought the e-waste issue into sharp focus.
In this second part on illegal e-waste in Malaysia, BFM takes a step back and looks at the bigger picture, including the global systems that drive the e-waste trade and the longer-term solutions that might help break the cycle. Helping to unpack these and more are Mageswari Sangaralingam, the honorary secretary of both Sahabat Alam Malaysia and the Consumers Association of Penang (CAP), and Wong Pui Yi, a researcher with the Basel Action Network.
