SELANGOR’s local authorities have been asked to penalise traders and customers at night and morning markets — which are now allowed to operate — for not adhering to the standard operating procedure.

Some of them had been found in violation of the SOP with poor physical distancing, causing concern among others there, said Klang Consumers Association.
