Grace period to clear old stock

KUALA BERANG: A one-week grace period starting today has been given to traders and pharmacy operators to clear their existing stock of Covid-19 self-test kits.

“We understand that they have bought the kit at prices of more than RM16 and RM19, so we will give them a week to clear their existing stock so that they do not incur huge losses when the ceiling price comes into effect,” said Deputy Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Minister Datuk Rosol Wahid.
