330435993Singapore GovernmentSingaporeSingaporeSouth Asia and OceaniaC402017PublicWasteWaste prevention policies and programsWe have mandated mandatory waste reporting and submission of waste reduction plan for large commercial premises, starting with large hotels and shopping mallsin 2014.Since 2014, to increase the convenience of recycling, public waste collectors (PWCs) are required to provide a blue co-mingled recycling bin at the common area next to every HDB block. The co-mingled system is convenient for residents and facilitates recycling efforts as they do not need to sort and segregate their recyclables nor set aside additional space in their homes to store the different types of recyclables. Private landed properties are also provided with a recycling bin each, which is collected once a week, in addition to a separate weekly collection of garden waste for recycling. Condominiums and private apartments are also required to provide recycling receptacles within their estate grounds. We have also further enhanced the recycling infrastructure. Since January 2014, dual chute systems have been installed in all new HDB Build-to-Order (BTO) developments. In addition, starting from 1 April 2018, all new non-landed private residential developments taller than four storeys will be required to install dual chutes for refuse and recyclables.(1.352083°, 103.819836°)(1.352083°, 103.819836°)

The city is guided by the Clean Air Asia’s avoid, shift and improve strategies to implement the sustainable urban transport programs.Consultation improves the quality of rules, programs, compliance and reduces enforcement costs for both government and citizens. Regulation and its reforms affect all the participants in civil society, and therefore, in order to better assess the impacts and minimize costs, all the parties involved should be able to participate somehow in the regulatory processes. That is why public consultation has become one of the best tools to improve quality in regulating Pasig City roads. - Promote active transport of walking, jogging and biking- Implemented and sustained in five major roads for five years - 185,000 visitors/ Carless loyalists- 360 events/ activities- Air-quality improvement by 72%- Promotes entrepreneurship, bazaars/ business- Promote family and community bonding spiritBayanihan sa Daan.Inculcating the values of family and community bonding as well as road sharing principles. The City continue to create many places for people to assemble, play and associate with others within their neighborhood despite the limited urban space, thus innovating carless sunday streets, pedestrianization and all forms of non-motorized transportation.Difficulties and Challenges include the business sector questioning the legality of road closure and institutionalize Carless Sunday Streets – the City Government invoked the stakeholders engagement and bike ordinance as well as Executive Order 774 favoring “non-motorized transportation and that those who have less in wheels must have more in roads”.With all these soft and hard programs, Pasig City is a recipient of the Bayanihan sa Daan Awards for 2014 and 2015 held at Malacañang Palace as well as one of the ASEANModel Cities Award as an Environmentally Sustainable City not to mention the International Liveable Community Awards for the Share the Road Program."(14.58691°, 121.0614°)(12.879721°, 121.774017°)
