MARKET complexes under the jurisdiction of Penang Island City Council (MBPP) will have to work out a rotation schedule for stalls to open until the movement control order (MCO) is over.
MBPP mayor Datuk Yew Tung Seang said the move came into effect yesterday and if market traders do not open by rotation, the council will close their market.
