92 Kg out in one day, and how many kilograms into the ocean? 1.123 per day in Thailand Kg according to statista.com. These ineffective i#i#ts at the top of the government could just implement a "change"-day using the article 44. From that day onward only packaging from waste paper, cassava,  bamboo, and banana leaves could be sold. Problem solved.
