Kuala Lumpur mayor Datuk Nor Hisham Ahmad Dahlan said DBKL is now issuing temporary three — to six-month permits that will allow hawkers to operate for limited hours throughout the day during the RMCO period.Applicants can get the permit within three working days of receipt of the application and the permit has to be renewed 30 days before the date of expiry.
Nor Hisham said DBKL is willing to provide opportunities to city folks who wish to become food vendors but on condition that they comply with its requirements. “Many people have lost money after being cheated by middlemen and ‘cartels’ who promise to get them a trading license. If anyone is confused about how to apply for a permit, they should come directly to DBKL,” he said.
“Each hawker can only carry out his/her business in one location during each time slot. They can, however, seek permission to take up a maximum of three time slots a day but must operate in different locations,” Nor Hisham explained.In view of the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, cleanliness is of utmost importance and, as such, DBKL will take stern action against hawkers who fail to practise good hygiene.
Meanwhile, Zaidi Zainal, who runs a stall specialising in spicy grilled fish in Jalan Cochrane, Cheras, said cleanliness has always been his priority as he wants his customers to enjoy their meal in a clean and comfortable environment.
