Eateries await sugar-free savings

PETALING JAYA: While the Jom Kosong or zero-sugar campaign will help improve the health of Malaysians, restaurant groups say the move to pay less to exclude sugar from drinks would also allow them to save on costs.

The initiative was launched by the Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Ministry on Sept 11 following the War on Sugar campaign led by the Health Ministry to encourage the public to reduce their sugar intake.
