THE government’s decision to allow petty traders to operate during the movement control order allowed me to earn some money during these difficult times. Although the SOP was slightly confusing, my business was able to make some profit. I’m hopeful that the government will channel more help for traders, like the one-off RM500 from the Perak state government to affected hawkers and petty traders.
