The Star reports that a restaurant operator will be prosecuted for charging a Perak Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs enforcement officer 10 sen extra for roti canai. I suppose this is the state government's way of taking care of the rakyat's pockets from the effects of the 30 sen increase in petrol... But let's get a few things straight. Prices have been going up everywhere since the announcement and all the state department has to show is this?
Furthermore, I am not sure what rules enforcement officers will use, but unless the terms of engagement are made clear, the likelihood of abuse is real and very unfortunate for local business.
