MIRI: Miri City Council (MCC), in anticipation of huge volume of domestic and bulky waste in the upcoming Hari Raya Puasa celebration, has allocated 49 Roll-On Roll-Off (RORO) bins to housing estates.
The bins had been placed at 36 strategic locations to enable residents in the area to dispose their waste.
They have been placed at Taman Tunku/Lambir Zone, Jalan Luak-Bakam Zone, Jalan Riam/Lopeng Zone, Krokop /Piasau Zone, Pujut Zone, Piasau Utara / Tudan Zone, Senadin Zone, Permyjaya Zone, and Lutong / Kuala Baram Zone.
The Hari Raya Puasa festival cleaning campaign starts on April 1 to April 20, depending on the location.
MCC hoped residents will utilise the provided bins and refrain from dumping rubbish indiscriminately, especially on road verges, road reserves or open spaces as this will not only become an eyesore, but also create potential breeding grounds for mosquitoes and other diseases related to insects.
For any enquiries, the public can contact the Council’s Office at 085-433501 or Public Cleansing and Maintenance Section (085-442411).
