KUALA LUMPUR – Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim today called on all state governments to formulate clear policies and plans to facilitate efforts to upgrade and beautify food courts and stalls in the country.
The prime minister said he had discussed with the Local Government Development Ministry, the menteri besar and the chief minister of the respective states for the relevant authorities to come up with a similar policy on the development of food courts and stalls.
“I have discussed and explained the (federal) government’s intention to the menteri besar and chief ministers on the effort to develop these facilities to raise the dignity and wellbeing of the low-income group.
“I hope that in the next few months, we can see the state governments and municipal councils coming out with their own plans regarding efforts to develop these facilities,” he said when opening the D’Anjung Selera Madani food court in Bandar Tun Razak near here today.
Also present was Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail, who is Bandar Tun Razak MP and Anwar’s wife.
Anwar said it was important to have clear policies and planning to change the current condition of food courts and stalls in the country, in line with the efforts being made by the Federal Territories Department and the Kuala Lumpur City Hall in upgrading and improving food stalls in the federal capital. – Bernama, June 3, 2023
