"Malaysia has sent back 150 shipping containers of plastic waste to rich
countries including the United States, United Kingdom, France and
Canada, insisting it won't be the "garbage dump" of the world.
The country has been inundated with shipments of illegal plastic waste
since 2018, when China cracked down on a large recycling industry."
