As a Malaysian, I'm ashamed we need to clean up our rivers in the first place.

First we need to clean up our governments!

@@raytvmy bad habit and bad mentality need to clean first

Did malaysia gov bought this interceptor or Oceancleanup choose malaysia to deploy this prototype

The cool thing is that not having the interceptor is more expensive than actually having one!

So true

And get them to pick up some of that shit along the banks.

Yupe!! Educating has to start from young.

Agreed.

We need more of these caring people in our world that care for the earth. I really agree with you.

Yees

That would mean even more pollution. I don't think that's a good idea. How about avoid all that garbage in the first place? Is that too difficult to think of?

mamuefa1 it's al about education and good parenting

@@ronniemarder that's definitely a good thing, yes. But how does this help against pollution caused by capitalistic production, which doesn't care about resources or anything but profit? I don't see that.

@@monkeytheo Exactly. Just stop throwing shit in the rivers and oceans.

While I admit Boyan is intelligent, It's not his efforts alone that have catapulted the project to what it is now. It's the incredibly talented team behind him. He's a figurehead.

Nothing in this is new.... repacking existing tech is hardly new.

@@tolikorlov187 cool so why havent you repackaged existing tech and done this?

champ8605 perhaps it’s because I’m busy repacking tech in other places of life?

Boyan slat is a next boyka river 💪💪💪

Yeahh in the Yamuna river need thousand of bins.

They're aiming to get 1000 out within 5 years.

Governments with the worse polluting rivers should be made to pay for the machines necessary to do the clean up,! It is the particular government’s responsibility. Find the funds and pay up!

MALCOLM FINLEY that’s bullshit. Half these places import trash as an economic necessity, everybody needs to use less plastic and the companies that sell billions worth of plastic to consumers should sponsor cleaning up after themselves and their crap products.

@@noahpapadopoulo5884 They need to step it up. They should coordinate with other companies to build more. Think about the North Pacific Gyre and the other Gyres. HUGE swaths of ocean pollution killing ocean life. I've seen youtube videos of Caribbean garbage patches hundreds of yards wide and miles long. Then they want to clean all the rivers??? This cleanup will take a lot more that 1000 Interceptors to knock down.

@@malcolmfinley6416 many of these governments don't even provide local trash service or have functional water treatment systems.

Key Em I would like to watch you clean up in your hometown!

@@ronkalkhoven2119 My hometown is quite tidy. Not much to clean up there.

He did mention during launch about putting up Livestream coz people like to see the rivers getting cleaned up...

Livestream on twitch and KZfaq with sub and donation activated so it goes to the association

@@ronkalkhoven2119 he meant he wanted to see the river being cleaned up by the machine

Why are crocodiles in our rivers a good thing? I hate crocos so much they are like dinosours that can kill so very easily, and for it to be in the Klang river so close to our population center is a recipie for trouble

@Panzer Blitz Shoo shoo antihuman. The world was created exclusively for us to observe and appreciate

@@futureshock382 I did not imply it was good. Rather, the fact now they're back, like that during the colonial times, means the river is fresher or can sustain life.

Green Light Why? In the time you watch the cam, you could clean up in your own invironment!

@@ronkalkhoven2119 how about both?

@@ronkalkhoven2119 u must be fun at Partys

@@michaelkoren9201 Ron is the kind of guy that knocks on your door cause he saw someone else liter in your garden and wondering why you havent jumped out your seat to go clean it xD

@@jacooosthuizen3593 i like xD

We also need to stop pollution at its source. Malaysian need to be more aware of waste they produce everyday!

Hahahah. Kan. Bersihkan sungai kerayong

Quit littering.

Sepatut perbanyakan benda mcm ni. Ada berapa agaknya dlm Malaysia?

Stop polluting your river

That's pretty much the only thing I can be proud of my country lol, and maybe the pnb118 as well, others are shit

A'chik chamdamberangna maths I think there is one on its way to india

Four now. It's 2% of the world's 11000 rivers that pollute 82% of the water getting into the oceans of the world. Only 2% doing 82% of the "damage". The goal is to apparently build enough to cover these "2%". Takes money, balls, strategy, government intervention, caring, time and talent.

That's a very elon musk idea

Its sponsored by Coldplay

its not free bro...Selangor State paying for this

tojami21 do your research. It’s free the first year and then govt can decide whether to rent it after that.

Everything comes with a price, but are we willing to risk those trash polluting our river.

Ape jangan harapla... Nie sungai pon kawasan cina ramai memangla pukimak cina buat untuk diorang jangan harap kerajaan skrng nk invest kt negeri lain.... Royalti pon x bagi dasar kafir harbi...

@@tukul_biru2900 biasanya warga asing yang buang sampah dalam sungai. Kau pun agak2 lah. Dorang pun malaysian jugak..

Is this deployed at Klang river? Trying to figure out where it is but I don't recognise any of the landmarks.

It’s just right beside the mosque and MPK

Alan Lok you can't miss the Royal Town Mosque at the background. It's literally in the centre of Klang old town.

@@MrBen101199 I don't visit Klang often enough to know the landmarks. I'll keep an eye out for it if I'm ever there. Thank you :)

If our country is miserable, this interceptor wont operate in our country...its the people not the country

True, maybe our negatif minded and habit should have this machine first, tapis sumer yg tak baik

its not only your country buddy, we all have made the situation bad as it is today.. so don't be ashamed of what has happened and lets be positive minded and try to place our contribution for something noble such as these projects.👍

Sourav Shanu so true...stay positive and look forward!

Typical self hating Malaysian. You must be a DAP supporter. Plastic polution is a global problem.

@@xenzgoul8319 another self hating Malaysian. DAP supporters love to profess their shame for being Malaysian. you mean like the west exporting all their trashes illegally into our shore, which were exposed by the media not too long ago. Yes, we should very ashamed of ourselves in front the 'enlightened' westerner. (I'm being sarcastic here, in case you are thick).

Nice to see the citizens throwing rubbishes into the river?

@@wayne891004 most of the trash cone from low density and illegal migrants they need to be educated. Such a imbaresment for me a Malaysian to see people littering into the river. Mostly at village area 😞😞

Preparing for sealevelrise? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rbV4ncp706-wn58.html #MLayarMalaysia

Hahaha gotta make it halal

Omg so true hahaha

No, broken pieces from glass bottle of wine can pollute the river, coconut is biodegradable. Think about it, they are saving the river not making it worst.

I think High percentage of indian and hinduism make the coconut breaking prayers

It's so they are using something biodegradable

Only malaysians?

What about turists

Or not throw crap in the river

their plastic comes from Canada

China and India are the top dirty countries in the world.

Mr Beast planted many trees this year and it the comment section everyone is shouting to clean 2mil plastics in the ocean😂

Yes! That's a great idea Have him partner with these people

I don't know if MrBeast could handle such an operation?

@@SystemCrasher113 I think he could be one of the sponsors??? And gang up volunteers maybe😁 I'm excited abt the millions of trees and even more excited thinking cleaning up the other pollutions like the rivers, lakes & oceans

@@OmiOmislysolofficial I think it really is more something for companies and governments as he said in the video. They have the most money

Andre Schuurman yes, but meanwhile we can still do this.

Malaysia is overflown by foreign workers from undeveloped nations. Educating its citizens is one thing, education citizens from another country is another

I collected rubbish from Sungai Kantan on the weekends. people are so irresponsible to take care of their own rubbish and why is it so hard to understand to place it in the bin instead of leaving it in the river.

Correct but also wrong,people need to be able to grow their own and compost the peelings.

I agree

As a muslim, it is a sin to throw rubbish and destroy nature without any solution to repair it back. It's the same with other religion. Probably the lack of morality and iman lead to these undisciplined, bad and disastrously 🚮. Sad though

so true..teach the little one to dispose rubbish in the right way.

when they revealed the interceptors they showed a map where most plastics come from and he zoomed on the Philippines and it just showed the Philippines releasing plastics all over its rivers

Ilog pasig is already clean i see it on other vlog.

@@slippinslidewayz Its not 100% clean... There are some parts of the river (slum areas where the river flows) that were still dirty but there are efforts to rehabilitate it especially now that new Manila Mayor Isko Moreno is active in cleaning and restoring Metro Manila.... Once the people in these slums will be relocated, its 100% guaranteed that these parts of the river will be cleaned... Main reason why Pasig River won its Riverprize Award yr 2018 and that also because of the massive rehabilition efforts of the volunteers...

But i feel ashamed also because this river mirror the bad habit of most klang valley people resident,industries,farming and commercial

The same river is clean in KL. Why is it dirty in Klang?

y=mx+c x=0

thank you. u made my life easier. i wanna go & see d 002 myself.

MayuriK technology is also the cause of the problems 🙂

@@itsnumbered i don't think: the problem is how humans use the technology.

It needs to be attacked at all angles, and this is one of them

It will change with time.

Yea education and stricter enforcement. Interceptor is just an immediate measure

Lol they have a lot of factories near the river, fix that first

Well it almost impossible, changing people's mindset are a tough challenge, most of people will do this behaviour again and again, unconscious ly, if they don't get reminded, or they will just ignore it.

Im sorry but what does that mean?, Because I'm pretty sure those tradition is originated from West tradition of breaking champagne, is there any other mean behind it?

I'm from India, normally whatever new business or job or marriage they offer coconut to lord Ganesha as a Thanksgiving. Whatever good things u do, they will offer coconut to god to make sure that the work started is success without any hurdles. Hope it is clear

@@anonymousstout4759 here we are talking of breaking coconuts. There is difference. Breaking coconuts in general before starting a good work is considered auspicious. It is an Asian tradition. There is no champagne involved. Yes, ofcourse in the manner of breaking of coconut here in the video resembles breaking a bottle of champagne. Traditionally it is done on the ground. It has been carried for centuries or millienia. Again nothing to do with champagne. Cöconuts grows on trees champagne does not.... "Before starting a good work, people in the temples break coconut. The coconut is offered to Lord Ganesha and then it is distributed as a Prasad. ... Breaking coconuts means breaking your Ego. The coconut displays the human body and when you break it, it means that you have incorporated yourself into the universe"

@@anonymousstout4759 now West claiming all the traditions. They come to Asia to destroy the history & bring it back to their home country. What a shame on you white people.

@@thejokerisme1978 what are you on about?

Ada dah satu bro..boleh tengok kat Sungai Klang. Bandar Klang Selangor.

Recycling plastic technology is not efficient yet, the goal is to make sure plastic doesn't reach the ocean, burning plastic might be the best solution we have for now since recycling plastic is a very energy demanding, costly and complicated process that require specific infrastructures that the country with interceptors deployed won't have.

You should know by now not all plastic can be recyclable only certain type of plastic can be recyclable the only can we do is reduce of plastic waste like reduce the use of plastic item such as plastic bag or plastic straw doing something so simple can make a big difference.

Or we could go back to paper and glass

wasn’t it a few years back our gov was so into biodegradable plastics? what happened huh

The really sad thing is that a lot of the plastic waste in Indonesia (and probably other places around there) *was* recycled. CBC's "Marketplace" recently had a show that looked into it. Us Canadians have been carefully separating our plastics and putting them out to be recycled; our towns' garbage collectors have been taking it down to our recycling depots to be collected; and recycling companies have been picking up the plastic to be recycled-- and fucking shipping it to be dumped in Indonesia, instead of recycling it!! >:( Ends up that not all plastics *can* be recycled, and it's an expensive process anyways, even for the ones that can, so these assholes (not all of them, but enough of the bastards--and even one is too much), instead of doing the job *they were contracted to do* have been just going, "Meh, cheaper to just ship it across the world and make it their problem." Fucking *assholes!!* Every company that does this ought to be fined *big* time, and those fines used to pay to clean our trash up again, by financing these things and anything else that will help. Fucking bastards. We *did* gather it up for recycling. *We* did our part, and thought we were doing the right thing! And these assholes just said "Thank you very much," and fucking threw it out. And not even here! They had to go and dump it on some other poor country to deal with. Fuck, it enrages me. Glad to see these things can help clean it up again!!
