PETALING JAYA: Some saw it as a shopping spree, others as a chance to give back, but starting at midnight yesterday, Malaysians were already heading to stores to redeem the government’s one-off RM100 Sara aid provided to 22 million citizens.
Checks at stores in the Klang Valley involved in the Sara initiative found that these outlets were packed with customers, with long queues at checkout.
