PETALING JAYA: The government should allow the manufacturers and retailers of the fashion, textile and apparel sectors to operate in Phase Two of the National Recovery Plan (NRP) as the industry is losing about RM163mil per day, says the Federation of Malaysian Fashion, Textile and Apparel.

Its president Datuk Seri Tan Thian Poh said they are deeply concerned by the current situation as they might only be allowed to operate when the country reaches Phase Three of the NRP.

Since the first movement control order last year, Tan said about 15% of fashion, textile and apparel businesses have ceased operations while 30% are on the verge of ending their businesses due to lack of cash flow and future uncertainties. "These customers will move their future orders to other countries due to the uncertainties if we are not allowed to operate soon," he said.

"A prolonged shutdown will put all 500,000 jobs at stake, and this will definitely aggravate the unemployment rate in the country.
