THE Selayang Municipal Council (MPS) will send a team of enforcement and licensing officers to check on the crowd situation at Pasar Harian Selayang Jaya in Batu Caves, Gombak on Monday (March 30)
This comes following a tweet posted on Saturday (March 28) morning showing a large crowd at the market, where customers were seen doing their shopping without practising any social distancing and no personnel controlling the situation
“We will send a team on Monday to check on the market, ” said MPS corporate communications director Mohamad Zin Masoad
"Pasar Harian Selayang Jaya is privately owned and it is the owner’s responsibility to ensure social distancing measures are in place, ” he said
He added that the MPS would issue a two-day notice starting on Saturday to the owner and said they would lose the market if the owner failed to take the necessary measures
Mohamad said regular checks by MPS teams showed that there were still supermarkets and grocery stores around Selayang where large crowds were seen, with nobody observing the 1m distance between shoppers as recommended by the Health Ministry
“Our officers have verbally warned the owners of such premises to observe the social distancing measures more seriously, or the council will issue warning notices to them
"We also reminded shoppers to leave immediately after making their purchases, ” he said
Mohamad added that MPS had inspected 1,091 business premises and hawker stalls as of the ninth day of the movement control order on Thursday (March 26)
Of that number, 24 were ordered to close, 250 were issued warning notices and 470 were given verbal reminders
“As a precautionary measure during this Covid-19 outbreak, traders have also been reminded to clean their space at the end of each day using a diluted bleach solution, ” he said
Mohamad added that MPS had also started taking the temperatures of shoppers and providing hand sanitisers as an added precautionary measure at selected markets under its jurisdiction
