PENAMPANG: The launching of a mobile recycling centre here will serve as a platform to create awareness on sustainable waste management. Friends of Village Development (Tonibung) director Adrian Lasimbang said about 40 per cent of rubbish can be recycled before it is discarded into the Kayu Madang landfill in Telipok. He added that despite efforts from the Kota Kinabalu City Hall (DBKK) and other non-governmental organisations to encourage waste segregation and offer payments for recyclable items, efforts have been futile.

Calling all folks who love collecting trendy vintage items!
There's a massive thrift store in Sabah where you can find so many beautiful secondhand goods.
Located in Kinarut, roughly 20km from Kota Kinabalu, Second Hand Shop & Bundle offers an array of different products under one roof!
Their motto is 'one man's trash is another one's treasure' and it's so apt because their warehouse is a treasure trove!
Whether you're looking for clothes, furniture, or kitchenware, they have it all.
Since they sell practically everything under the sun, the price range for their items can be as cheap as RM1 but also reach up to RM1,000 or slightly more.
Second Hand Shop & Bundle sources their items from different countries. Their most recent restock last March saw a load of cute secondhand items from Japan.

The staffs are very polite and helpful. As I remember RM0.15/kg for mixed kind of paper and RM0.30/kg for black and white paper. For me, it's reasonable. The place is quite neat too and strategic to be noticed.
Promote both marine and terrestrial environmental education and awareness, recycling and upcycling, green technology, heritage preservation and youth leadership training and development etc
