Challenges in Establishing an Integrated Data/Information system for Household E-waste Management in Malaysia

2. • With
the
Introduc.on
of
Solid
Waste
Management
&
Public
Cleansing
Act
2007,
SWM
has
been
transferred
from
local
authori.es
to
federal
level.
• Centralisa.on
of
SWM
cover
not
only
household
waste
but
including
other
non-­‐regulated
solid
waste
today
(i.e:
e-­‐waste,
industrial,
construc.on
&
etc.)

4. • By
Individual
ini.a.ve
and
not
shared
• A
lot
of
data
s.ll
in
hardcopy
• Codes/
informa.on
not
standardised
(inconsistencies)
• Low
quality
assurance
of
data
• Duplica.on
of
effort
• Data
not
analyzed
for
use
Issues
in
Malaysia’s
E-­‐Waste
Data
Management
today

5. Integrated
EDMS
requires
comprehensive
and
reliable
data,
including
other
type
of
SW

6. • Secure,
stable,
flexible/interchangeable
• User
friendliness
with
repor.ng
func.ons
• Registra.on
&
management
of
vendors,
case
handling
• Waste
flow
tracking
• Inventory
management
• Integrated
and
open
system
for
interface
with
other
system
such
as
GIS.

to
facilitate

and

to
developing

and
ease
of
