GEG Bill should be held back, say retailers

PETALING JAYA: The tabling of the revised Control of Smoking Products for Public Health Bill 2023 should be postponed, says the Federation of Sundry Goods Merchants Associations of Malaysia.

“Our main concern is how the Generational End Game (GEG) Bill will be implemented. This was never discussed with any retail players, and we are the frontliners to implement the proposal,” said its president Hong Chee Meng.
