Convenient: The Putrajaya Ramadan Festival 2013 serves as a one-stop centre for everything one would need for their Raya preparations. Besides buka puasa fare, items available for sale include clothing, songkok, songket, batik, headscarves, accessories, Raya cakes and cookies, and soft furnishings.

PUTRAJAYA Corporation (PPj) spent RM481,700 to buy 30 mobile kiosks for its 2013 Ramadan Festival but only reused four the next year. None of its staff knew how to re-assemble the structures.

This forced the corporation to spend another RM345,769 to rent 76 mobile kiosks for use in last year’s Ramadan festival, the report found.

Limited time offer:
Just RM5 per month.
