KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 24 — The Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) will fully handle licence applications and maintenance of Ramadan bazaars in the capital starting this year to ensure reasonable rental fees of stalls and better management.
Minister in the Prime Minister's Department (Federal Territories) Dr Zaliha Mustafa said that this new approach is to address complaints over business application fees.
"In this new approach, we are also offering reasonable rental fees. The rental fee for a (Ramadan) bazaar (stall) is only RM500 … about RM16 per day. There were complaints that some traders spent up to RM20,000 but failed to get a stall," she said when appearing as a guest on Bernama TV's ‘Ruang Bicara’ programme tonight.
Dr Zaliha said DBKL will collaborate with corporate bodies to ensure a more organised operation of Ramadan bazaars.
