Zero Waste Isn’t So Difficult After All

Rick Lim & Ong Hwee Wen, Co-founders, PYNG

Zero Waste Isn’t So Difficult After All

Malaysia is notoriously not fantastic at reducing waste - we generate about 38,699 tonnes of garbage every day, or about 1.17kg per person. But for the sake of saving the planet for the next generation, it’s about time we made some changes. Co-founders Rick Lim & Ong Hwee Wen discuss their passion to Protect Your Next Generation, or PYNG, for short - and how they’ve set up this zero waste e-commerce platform to combat climate change.
