PETALING JAYA: Iron and steel hardware dealers, stockists and wholesalers should be allowed to operate during the lockdown period, says the Federation of Malaysia Hardware, Machinery & Building Materials Dealers’ Association (FMHMBA).
President Datuk Eric Koh said more than 80% of the association's 3,000 members nationwide are small and medium enterprises and have been badly affected since the first movement control order last year.
