JOHOR BARU: Shops in the city’s downtown area that have been around for decades are hoping business, which was hit by the slowdown due to the Covid-19 pandemic and ensuing movement control order (MCO), will pick up soon.

Sing Keng Wah Kedai Tilam proprietor Yeo Sen Soon said the shop had not received any new orders since reopening under the recovery MCO on June 10.
