The plastic straws will only be given at the request of the customer for each ordered drink.

SHAH ALAM: All food and beverage outlets, including restaurants in Selangor, are prohibited from providing plastic straws at the counter to be freely picked up by customers from July 1.

He said all local authorities would also include the ban in the terms of business licence application when restaurant operators submit new applications or renew their business licences. He explained that the implementation of the policy was in line with the ongoing plastic campaign in Selangor, in line with the government’s intention to reduce the use of single-use plastics such as plastic bags, polystyrene, coverings or plastic food coatings, disposable plastic materials and so on.

“In fact, there are also food, beverage and restaurant premises using paper or bamboo straws and distributing free stainless steel straws to the public and so on.
