        And again all the buyers have to pay extra money to buy environment friendly bags. You just making rules without alternative options :/ Sad

        I have been living in Sri Lanka on & off a while now. This is a good move. There will be many organizations who will donate reusable totes.

        Great! How hard it is to find reusable cloth bag/paper bags instead of ploythenes.The idea that GOV has to give/do everything is killing us!

        Banning polyethylene is very good. But very bad when it's just ad hoc decision making. Especially when it regards saving some people's a**es
