I went to NTUC to buy my Soy Milk

The screen pop- out asking if I need plastic bags

I touch "NO" but still can freely take

Using same Jac Lau's stupidity "This is card problem, not bank account problem"

which is - This is a system problem, not MP's problem!

Do they charge for those translucent plastic bags we choose to scoop prawns or fish in. What if we use these to put apples and oranges as usual?

[Instinct]

Most silly proposition to charge for plastic bag which is a basic convenience and needs for consumers. It is going to create a whole new set of problems to the people and environment. Pap focus on the wrong way of solving environmental issues.

Slogan to be "We respect cleaners and believe plastic bags can be recycled as trash bags, saving the Earth just as well!".
"清洁工人也需尊敬，购物袋可以环保成垃圾袋,对地球一样环保！”

Look like they will lose a lot of businesses.

Shops which give free plastic bag will have a good business lah.
