PUTRAJAYA: All trade and distribution sub-sectors in states under Phase Two of the National Recovery Plan (NRP) can resume operations even if the number of fully vaccinated individuals in those states has yet to reach 50% of the adult population. The Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Ministry said the states involved are Kelantan, Terengganu, Pahang, Perak, Penang and Sabah. “Industry players and premises owners can operate without having to wait for approval from the ministry. Among them are photography shops and services, shops selling second-hand items, florists and nurseries, handicraft and souvenir shops, antique shops, toy stores, carpet shops and creative content and creative industry equipment stores. It stressed that premises owners listed as trade companies that could resume operations must ensure customers who enter their premises show their digital Covid-19 vaccination certificate as proof.
