THE management of Ramadan bazaars in the Federal Territories will be modified this year to prevent congestion at stalls, said Annuar Musa.
The Federal Territories minister said his ministry will work with the relevant parties before making an announcement soon.
“Just because Singapore or other parties have announced that there will be no bazaars this year, does not mean we will say the same thing,” he said before viewing disinfection works at shops in Presint 15, Putrajaya, today.
He said the Ramadan bazaars will not be cancelled but will be adjusted as the people, especially those living in cities, needed them.
“We have to think of the needs of urban folk, who do not have time to cook after returning from work,” he said.
“I want this matter to be looked at as previous Ramadan bazaars were usually big and spread out, and we probably cannot do the same (this year),” he said.
He added that Ramadan bazaars this year could be held with a maximum of 50 stalls in any one place, or even only 10 stalls that are spaced out.
“Whether the movement control order (MCO) is continued or not, we will not carry on with the old way, which could cause health problems.
“We have to improve our lifestyle, not just through exercise and self-discipline during the MCO. There are many things we can learn and continue to practise post-MCO,” he said. – Bernama, March 31, 2020.
