    Trader faces stern action for selling eggs at RM1 each 1

    IPOH: A trader here is facing stern action for selling eggs at RM1 each at his business premises during the Movement Control Order (MCO).

    Perak Domestic Trade and Consumerism Ministry director Saifullizan Kamarul Zaman said a team of five enforcement officers conducted a check on the premises on Thursday after receiving complaints regarding the matter on the same day.

    “There was a sign showing the price of eggs was RM1 each without stating the eggs’ grades and a total of 114 eggs were on display,” he said in a statement yesterday.

    He said they issued a notice under Section 21 of the Price Control Act and Anti-Profiteering Act 2011 to the trader to provide information on the sale price of eggs at his premises before April 16 and added that action could be taken for failure to do so.

    He said the trader could also be investigated under Section 12 (1) of the Consumer Protection Act 1999 for misleading the public by not stating the eggs’ grades.

    He warned that stern action would be taken against traders taking advantage of the current situation by raising the prices of goods and advised the public to report any price hike or supply issues. — Bernama

    MAEPS quarantine centre in Serdang to receive Covid-19 patients next week 2

    KUALA LUMPUR: The Covid-19 Low-Risk Patient Quarantine and Treatment Centre at the Malaysia Agro Exposition Park Serdang (MAEPS) in Serdang near here is expected to receive patients next week.

    Mardi Corp Group chief executive officer Zaidi Shahrim however said so far, it had no information on the exact date when the authorities would send the Covid-19 patients there for quarantine.

    “MAEPS will receive low-risk Covid-19 patients from around the Klang Valley, Malacca and several areas in Perak,” he said last night in an interview via Skype that broadcast live on the Bernama 7.45 programme.

    On the challenges faced throughout the process of transforming MAEPS into a quarantine centre in just a short period of time, Zaidi said said it was difficult to get supplies from contractors as many were ‘bound’ by the Movement Control Order (MCO).

    “We received the instruction during the first phase of the MCO but Alhamdulillah, with the close cooperation between various government agencies such as the Ministry of Health (MOH), Nadma (the National Disaster Management Agency), the Fire and Rescue Department and private companies, we managed to realise it within four days,” he added.

    Zaidi said MAEPS is equipped with hospital-like facilities such as beds, bathrooms, dressing room, toilet, lounge and so on.

    Among the services provided at the centre are clinical services, ward for Covid-19 patients, resuscitation rooms to stabilise patients in emergency situations, ambulance, pharmacy, X-ray, and pathology laboratory services.

    The quarantine centre which has the capacity to place up to 600 patients at any one time is coordinated by Nadma with the cooperation of the MOH, the Malaysian Armed Forces, the Fire and Rescue Department, the Civil Defence Force, the Social Welfare Department and the Public Works Department. — Bernama
