PUTRAJAYA (Bernama): The Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Ministry (KPDNHEP) has launched Ops Menu to conduct checks at restaurants and eateries to prevent price manipulation and rigged scales.

KPDNHEP enforcement director Azman Adam said the operation would focus on premises that prepare and serve cooked food, including restaurants, eateries, food courts and seafood restaurants.

Azman said operators were reminded to always comply with the rules and regulations especially regarding the display of prices and weighing scales to avoid facing legal action, including being charged in court or issued compounds. Unincorporated businesses would face fines of up to RM50,000 while incorporated businesses would face maximum fines of RM100,000 if they were found to have committed an offence, he added.

Azman reminded consumers to be careful and to choose ethical restaurants and eateries that displayed clear price lists and used valid scales to avoid being deceived by unethical traders.
