JOHOR BARU, April 21 — Several traders including butchers at the Larkin Sentral Public Market here, are fleecing consumers by selling imported buffalo meat, imported mutton and several other items above the ceiling prices set under the maximum price scheme in conjunction with the Aidilfitri festival.

“I deliberately came and looked at this market because I received a lot of information about the prices which are sometimes very unreasonable. He said for example, the price of imported buffalo should be sold at RM20 per kilogramme but there are traders selling at RM24 per kg. “So I regret this very much and I hope officials will be able to act quickly today, so that the people can shop at the prices we have set,” said Salahuddin.
