Cleaners, sewage and sanitation workers, street sweepers and grass-cutters have kept our cities and towns habitable during the MCO, toiling quietly outdoors on a daily basis despite fears that the Covid-19 virus could pose a threat to their lives.Indah Water Konsortium driver Mohd Shah Rizal Md Amin, 41, said he and his colleagues observed social distancing as required under the MCO.
On how the public can play their part during the period, he advised home residents to dispose of their waste properly.“The oil will harden like cement and this will hamper drainage flow. Over time, it will block the sewer pipelines. Shah Alam City Council public health supervisor Saari Osman, 43, said he made sure his staff were well protected by taking preventive measures, including wearing face masks and gloves, while on duty.
“We also have a ‘flying squad’ to clear food waste at roadblocks manned by the police and armed forces in the municipality.He said during the MCO, many people took the opportunity to spring-clean their home and this required additional waste disposal services from the council workers.
