KUCHING: The iBuyBack App has been launched by the Kuching South City Council (MBKS) today.
Mayor Datuk Wee Hong Seng said the app is part of the Buy Back Recycling Campaign, which encourages Kuching City South residents to recycle their waste in exchange for reward points.
These points can be redeemed for household items. The app streamlines the collection and segregation of recyclable items, preventing them from being disposed of in landfills. It also provides information on recycling drop-off locations.
According to Wee, the app will later be extended to E-Waste and Organic Solid Waste.
He said this during the launching of Make Climate Cool Again event, held in conjunction with Earth Day 2023 at Dewan Masyarakat MBKS.
The app was launched by Deputy Premier Datuk Seri Dr Sim Kui Hian.
