PETALING JAYA: Coffee shop owners are still recuperating from losses during this Covid-19 pandemic and they are relieved over the government’s decision to halt the enforcement of liquor licences from Jan 1 next year for the retail sale of alcoholic beverages.

This was indeed good news for coffee shop businesses and its owners, said Persatuan Peniaga-Peniaga Kopi, Bar dan Restoran Petaling Jaya president Keu Kok Meng.
