Beijing diners and restaurants support government push to curb food wastage

At popular Peking roast duck restaurant chain Quanjude in Beijing, staff have been passing on a new message to diners: do not order more than you can eat. The eatery is among the latest businesses joining a nation-wide campaign against food wastage, which started last week after Chinese President Xi Jinping denounced the behaviour as "shameful" while the country battles a pandemic.
