How about products nga naka wrap ug plastic? Ang mga plastic bags ra nga gamiton para sudlanan sa mga pinalit ang i ban unya ang sulod sa mga resusable bags kay pwerte gihapon ka daghan nga plastic?

Ang sulod sa re-usable bag kay mga paper bags and other re-usable items and not supposed to be plastics. If naay wala ni follow ani, better inform the management of that establishment.

And why do the City Government only allow this ordinance during saturdays ?

akong namat-an ug buot 1970's..
naa mi sari-sari store, namaligya mi ug paper bag ug net bag(reusable).
lig-on pud to ang paper bag mao nga reusable pud.
1980's...ni enter na ang plastic bags, basin naka-amgo sila nga mahurot ang mga kahoy or nagkamahal na ang papel...aw siempre mo mahal ang papel kay gamay na lang ang mga trees.
then wala nay paper bags o bolsita, uso na kaayo ang net bags sa kamerkadohan...
pero pag 1990's na wala pud ang net bags, sosyal na ang mga tawo...plastic bags na gyud, dili pa gyud i reuse.


angay pud tingali ang mga tawo mo i re use sa paper bags.

Delikado mahurot ang atong mga kakahoyan pud.

Sakto kaayo na mag-negosyo ug bag para pangompra,
kanang reusable, selyado ug puwede pud hugasan ug limpiyohan.

No problems here...only lang nga ang paper bag, mas menos ug recycle-bility sa end-consumer...
Ang plastic bag man gud kay magamit para basura or re-use para mga pustonon...
As of yet, menos raman kaau gamit sa paper bag inig abot sa balay..

Kung ma-timing lagi pod ug bug-at2x nya wa kada ug recyclable bag, hasol pod..

IMO, Philippines is not yet industrialized as to implement this yet and the people are not that mature to actually follow this. Unlike the United States wherein there are a lot of recycling centers, the Philippines does not, not as much as to accomodate the materials that needs recycling though. And its total bulls**t for someone to say that having a paperbag is eco-friendly, coz for one, they dont recycle it, they juz burn it right away when they get home or juz throw it right away in the trash to be taken to the dump where they burn it anyway, which in turn is harmful to the environment. People here, espcially the lower class, which makes up 90% of the population in this country doesnt know how to recycle and has no means of doing so. Paper bag is not the solution for being eco-friendly, in our country, its only a waste of trees, if they wanna save mother earth, then build more recycling centers and educated and implement stricter laws regarding wastes disposal and recycling. Mga tawo magpataka lang og labay og basura sa dalan or sa kanal, unsa may nakalahi sa plastic bag og paper bag nga ilabay sa kanal, makabara ra man gihapon nang duha.
