Kids still getting booze easily


Two teenagers walking out from a Chinese medicine shop in Jalan Klang Lama, Kuala Lumpur, holding a plastic bag with their illegal purchase.

IT TOOK less than five minutes for two teenagers to buy a bottle of Goodman whisky from a liquor shop in Taman United in Jalan Kelang Lama recently.

What’s the big deal you may say. Well, both boys were 14 years old and they were not asked to provide any identification when they purchased the liquor.
