It's been a quiet few days at work for Crossroads Records co-owner Anne Marie Cheong since the conditional movement control order (MCO) came into effect in the Klang Valley on Oct 14.

The family-run independent record shop in Kota Damansara is usually noisier with Cheong's husband/shop co-owner Hafeez Rashid greeting customers, recommending music and also playfully scooping up the couple's two young daughters who visit the store.
