Food supplies running low


EMPTY shelves at mini markets and a shortage of food aid now fill the days of about 10,000 people within the enhanced movement control order in Bayan Lepas, Penang.

With only a few shops within the zone allowed to open, supplies have been snapped up while those depending on daily wages in this lower middle-class neighbourhood are left in the lurch.
