Dozens of shipping containers full of waste will be returned from Indonesia to France and other developed countries, as Southeast Asian nations increasingly reject serving as dumping grounds for international trash. The 49 containers were loaded with a combination of garbage, plastic waste and hazardous materials in violation of import rules, according to customs officials on Batam island.
