Kejayaan Kementerian Perdagangan Dalam Negeri Koperasi dan Kepenggunaan membenteras gejala penjualan barang kawalan diatas harga kawalan di sepanjang sambutan Hari Raya Aidil Fitri.
Kejayaan ini telah membantu memastikan rakyat Sarawak yang menyambut Hari Raya Aidil Fitri berbelanja secara berpatutan dan tidak diluar batasan harga yang sepatutnya.
Pada masa yang sama, para peniaga patut dipuji kerana tidak mengambil kesempatan untuk menaikkan harga barangan kawalan.
Sarawak akan lebih menjadi negeri yang makmur dan aman damai sekiranya semua pihak mencontohi sikap tidak-mengambil-kesempatan yang ditunjukkan oleh para peniaga.
Sekali lagi Pemuda PBB Padungan ingin mengucapkan ribuan terimakasih diatas sikap tidak mengambil kesempatan untuk menaikkan harga barang kawalan.
Sekian. Terima kasih.

KUCHING: No trader in Sarawak was caught selling controlled items above the fixed price during the Hari Raya celebrations.
The Domestic Trade, Cooperatives and Consumerism Ministry had fixed ceiling prices for 18 items under its festive season price control scheme.
The price cap was in effect for 15 days from Aug 23 to Sept 6.
State Domestic Trade, Cooperatives and Consumerism Ministry director Wan Ahmad Uzir Wan Sulaiman said he did not receive any reports of non-compliance from his enforcement team throughout the state.
“Of course, we cannot monitor prices in every corner of the state because Sarawak is very big.
“However, our enforcement team has covered most of the town areas and no one had been caught for selling controlled items above the price cap,” he said.
The controlled items are live chicken, standard chicken, super chicken, imported beef, local buffalo, imported buffalo meat, eggs (Grades A, B, and C), imported round cabbage, red chillies, tomato, grated coconut, imported groundnut, imported shallots and garlic, big onion and mackerel.
Individuals can be fined up to a maximum of RM15,000 or jailed two years under the Price Control Act 1946 and can also be compounded not less than RM100 for each offence.
