THE Perak Heath Department will conduct random checks at eateries and shops throughout Chinese New Year to ensure food items sold are safe to be consumed.

Perak Health Committee chairman Datuk Dr Mah Hang Soon said the operation, called “Ops Ji” (Operation Chicken), will be held until Chap Goh Mei to ensure traders are not selling bad goods.
