‘No need to rush lemon law, enhance current ones’


PETALING JAYA: Existing laws in the country are good enough to protect consumers, so there is no need to rush the lemon law which is being considered for those who purchase vehicles, say legal experts.

Former Malaysian Bar president Salim Bashir said existing consumer protection laws, such as the Sale of Goods Act 1957, Consumer Protection Act 1999 (CPA), Contract Act 1950, Control of Supplies Act 1961, and Hire Purchase Act 1967 could be strengthened to enhance consumer protection.
