Domestic Trade Ministry to focus on people-centric programmes to help reduce cost of living

PUTRAJAYA: Efforts to reduce the people’s cost of living and give consumers a cheaper price option like what was implemented last year will be extended this year with several people-centric programmes, says the Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Ministry (KPDNHEP).

In a statement on Wednesday (Jan 5), KPDNHEP said the programmes included sales campaigns such as Back To School, as well as during festive seasons and national month celebration to give consumers a choice to make planned purchases.
