JOHOR BARU: The Johor Indian Petty Traders and Small Businesses Association has organised a Deepavali bazaar in a mall for the first time this year to assist traders who are facing a challenging time getting customers amid the Covid-19 pandemic.

Its president D. Ravindran said the bazaar was set up in the mall here in Skudai after the association’s application to have it outdoors in Tampoi was rejected by the local council.
