Abstract

A sustainable municipal waste recycling program is important to successfully increase the recycling rate in Malaysia. This paper evaluates and assesses the sustainability level of the recycling activities by Surau Al-Husna in Shah Alam, Malaysia. Five criteria were selected in the evaluation process. These criteria were divided into the continuous publicity of recycling programs, operation cost, participation rate/recyclables collection rate, dissemination of information regarding recycling and the enthusiasm level regarding environmental concerns. The results showed that Surau had a proper management system. However, several suggestions and recommendations were provided to improve the current recycling program. In conclusion, the Surau Al-Husna maintains sustainable recycling practices and is a good role model for sustainable recycling programs at the nationwide scale in Malaysia.
