BUTTERWORTH, April 4 -- Shops in certain categories in Seberang Perai will be permitted to operate for limited periods beginning Monday.
Seberang Perai City Council (MBSP) mayor Datuk Rozali Mohamud said hardware shops, agriculture and industrial machinery spare parts shops, shops dealing with agriculture input, food outlets and animal care shops were allowed to operate twice a week on Mondays and Thursdays from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.
“Hardware shops and those dealing in agriculture and industrial machinery spare parts are also allowed to operate in emergency situations which require immediate repairs,” he said in a press conference which was broadcast live on the MBSP Facebook page today.
He said MBSP will take enforcement action against other traders who were not in these categories who continued to operate their businesses, including revoking their licences with immediate effect while the police will take action under existing laws.
Rozali also said Ramadan bazaars in Seberang Perai will also not be allowed to operate but consumers are encouraged to place online orders and sellers can make their deliveries.
