Penang City council to revoke licences as ban on foreign cooks takes effect

GEORGE TOWN: The ban on foreigners from cooking local hawker fare takes effect today and the Penang City Council (MBPP) will revoke licences of errant traders who refuse to comply.

MBPP Licencing and Public Health Standing Committee alternate chairman Ong Ah Teong said there would be no more warning as the education process had already begun since October.
