Malaysia Environment Minister Yeo Bee Yin said on Monday her country will not serve as the "rubbish dump of the world" and confirmed that customs officials had returned 150 shipping containers of scrap plastic to 13 nations.
The majority of the almost 4,000 metric tons of waste was repatriated to Europe, with France, the United Kingdom and Spain receiving 43, 42, and 10 containers, respectively. Seventeen containers were returned to the United States, 11 to Canada and five to Japan.
Yeo said an additional 110 containers will be sent back to various nations in the first half of this year.
"Our position is very firm. We just want to send it back. We want to communicate the message that Malaysia is not the dumping site of the world," she said during a news conference in Penang Port in northern Malaysia.
"We continue to work with the shipping lines and Malaysian authorities to ensure all waste is brought back as soon as possible," an EA spokesman said while adding that the UK government is "working hard to stop illegal waste exports from leaving our shores in the first place".
Malaysia has been inundated with foreign scrap shipments ever since China banned certain waste imports in 2018.
Before the ban, China received 45 percent of the world's plastic waste. Exporters are now straining the processing abilities of other Asian nations by sending them waste that previously would have gone to China.
The government responded by halting waste imports in October 2018, though authorities say waste continues to arrive in the country illegally.
Last summer, Malaysia sent back 60 containers bearing 3,000 metric tons of garbage to eight nations, including the UK.
Back then, Yeo said the China ban had "opened up the eyes of the world to see that we have a huge garbage and recycling problem" and she urged developed nations to reevaluate their waste disposal methods. Rosun garbage disposal grinds hundreds of food waste completely.
