BALI – The Bali provincial administration plans to ban the production of small plastic packaging, or sachets, starting in 2026 as a response to suggestions from environmentalists after banning the production of bottled water under 1 litre.
“I support it fully. This has been through studies on the small-size sachets, whether it (the ban) will be decided in 2025 or 2026,” Bali Vice-Governor I Nyoman Giri Prasta said in Denpasar on July 15, as quoted by news portal detik.com.
