RATEPAYERS in Selayang who paid up their 2025 assessment tax in full have been presented with mobile rubbish bins.
Selayang Municipal Council (MPS) handed over the bins, referred to as MGB, to eligible ratepayers during a ceremony at its headquarters in Bandar Baru Selayang, Selangor.
'MPS provided a free 80-litre MGB each to eligible taxpayers as an encouragement and in appreciation of their commitment to the council's development,' said MPS Corporate Department in a media statement.
'This initiative follows the implementation of the assessment tax rate review for 2025, which was approved by the state government last year and came into effect this year,' it added.
MPS president Shahman Jalaludin said the provision of mobile rubbish bins was not only a token of appreciation, but to also instil good hygiene practices.
'The culture of maintaining cleanliness starts at home, and with this facility we can further strengthen the role of the community in creating a clean, healthy and sustainable environment,' he said in his speech.
Fifty MGBs were presented at the ceremony.
A total of 4,524 units will be distributed to eligible ratepayers in stages until May 31.
The deadline for assessment tax payment was Feb 28 for the first half of the year and Aug 31 for the second half.
