Is Guangzhou ready for its garbage regulation?

GUANGZHOU, capital of South China's Guangdong province, will implement a household garbage sorting regulation from July 1. Xinkuai Daily commented on Thursday:

Different from refuse sorting rules in other cities, Guangzhou's is compulsory, which means the law-enforcement departments can enact it by force, and some new practices are to be piloted to ensure the regulation is carried out.

For instance, residents will be charged according to the weight of different kinds of garbage they produce, and the public sanitation departments can refuse to collect unsorted refuse. There will be guidance to instruct the people how to avoid violating the regulation, which will result in fines of up to 200 yuan ($30.23) for individual lawbreakers and 50,000 yuan for residential units.
