After Singapore’s Beverage Container Return Scheme (BCRS) fully kicked in on Oct 1, more people have been returning empty drink containers to retrieve their deposits.
Some individuals, however, have been spotted approaching people outside Jurong Point to ask for their empty drink bottles and cans, raising questions about whether they are cashing in on the scheme.
A man surnamed Liang recently shared a video with 8world, which showed several people drinking beverages outside the shopping mall.

Liang told the Chinese publication he suspected that these individuals were collecting the empty drink containers to redeem the deposits under BCRS.
