HDB should distribute standard rubbish bags for every household

HDB should distribute standard rubbish bags for every household. The plastic bags from supermarkets are not strong, can’t be used as rubbish bags

What is the purpose of such policy to charge 5cts? Does the authority know that consumers want such plastic bags to store their food scraps, kitchen scraps after preparing food for cooking? Does the authority want consumers to dump directly into the bins without wrapping them in plastic bags? Why implement such stupid policy only to see the rubbish bins full of rubbish with no plastic bags?

I think the authorities know but what to do? They can provide no alternatives except to silently hint to you pay monies to get trash bag to bin your rubbish.
