Extra supply of face masks selling fast


PUTRAJAYA: The promised additional supply of face masks are already available in the market, but are fast flying off the shelves due to high demand, says Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Ministry.

Its secretary-general Datuk Hasnol Zam Zam Ahmad said some areas would have to face a longer waiting time, as more supplies were being channelled to certain areas such as Johor, where there was a lot of movement of people to and from Singapore, which is also affected by the Covid-19 outbreak.
