The inevitability of e-waste management and the development of a holistic system to deal with it has become an indispensable socio-economic and environmental issue for the sustainable development of Malaysia. However, no comprehensive research has yet been carried out, and only a few works in a discreet manner have been begun.

It also presents the corresponding responses adopted so far with respect to legislation and other infrastructural development.enE-wasteE-waste management systemRecyclingRecoverySustainabilityJournal
