Ndi anthu ochepa olankhula Chitchaina, Malaysia inali chisankho chapamwamba kwa obwezeretsanso ku China omwe akufuna kusamuka, ndipo zidziwitso zovomerezeka zidawonetsa kutulutsa pulasitiki kuwirikiza katatu kuchokera pamilingo ya 2016 mpaka matani 870,000 chaka chatha.
M'tawuni yaying'ono ya Jenjarom, pafupi ndi Kuala Lumpur, mafakitale opangira pulasitiki adawoneka ambiri, akutulutsa utsi woyipa nthawi yonseyi.
Milu ikuluikulu ya zinyalala zapulasitiki, zotayidwa poyera, zowunjikana pamene obwezeretsanso amavutika kuti apirire kuchuluka kwa katundu watsiku ndi tsiku, monga zakudya ndi zotsukira zovala, zochokera kumadera akutali monga Germany, US, ndi Brazil.
Posakhalitsa okhalamo adawona fungo loyipa lomwe lili mtawunimo - fungo lamtundu womwe nthawi zambiri limapangidwa pokonza pulasitiki, koma olimbikitsa zachilengedwe amakhulupirira kuti utsi wina umachokera pakuwotchedwa kwa zinyalala zapulasitiki zomwe zinali zotsika kwambiri kuti zibwezeretsedwe.
“Anthu ankagwidwa ndi utsi wapoizoni, womwe umawadzutsa usiku. Ambiri amatsokomola kwambiri, ”atero a Pua Lay Peng.

Madandaulo oyambirira kwa akuluakulu a boma sanapite kulikonse koma anapitirizabe kuumiriza, ndipo pamapeto pake boma linachitapo kanthu. Akuluakulu aboma adayamba kutseka mafakitale osaloledwa ku Jenjarom, ndipo adalengeza kuti dziko lonse layimitsidwa kwakanthawi pazilolezo zolowetsa pulasitiki.
Mafakitole makumi atatu ndi atatu adatsekedwa, ngakhale olimbikitsa amakhulupirira kuti ambiri adasamukira kwina kulikonse mdziko muno. Anthu okhalamo akuti mpweya wabwino wapita patsogolo koma zotayirapo pulasitiki zina zatsala.
Ku Australia, Europe ndi US, ambiri mwa omwe amatolera mapulasitiki ndi zinthu zina zobwezeretsedwanso adasiyidwa akungoyang'ana kuti apeze malo atsopano oti atumize.
Adakumana ndi zokwera mtengo kuti akonzeredwe ndi obwezeretsanso kunyumba ndipo nthawi zina amawatumiza kumalo otayirako zinyalala pomwe zinyalala zidawunjika mwachangu.
