JOHOR BARU: Sugarcane husk, or bagasse, is not known to be of any use but for four students of SMK Taman Pelangi, they have turned the waste into cutlery.

English Language teacher Arumugam Gopal steered students Aira Nadea Md Ridzwan, Putri Naysilla Najwa Bachron, Muhammad Khalil Kamarun, all aged 16, and Sham Murugan, 15, to do research and find a better use for bagasse.
