PETALING JAYA: Shoppers were more price-savvy when they made their Chinese New Year purchases this year compared to the previous years, says Malaysia Retail Chain Association (MRCA) president Datuk Seri Garry Chua.

Malaysians, he added, are now starting to do their Chinese New Year shopping nearer to the big day this year rather than weeks in advance as what was seen in the past few years.
