Visitors swarm to the Kelantan Malaysian Family Aspirations Tour booth to buy affordable necessities
On the final day of the Kelantan Malaysian Family Aspirations Tour (AKM) at the Sultan Muhammad IV Stadium today, visitors flocked to the Coop Mart booth in droves to purchase the basics supplied under the Malaysian Family Cheap Sale programme despite the oppressive heat.
Even though the event didn’t begin for another hour, visitors began to swarm to the booth at midday because it was hosted by Coop Mart under the Cooperative Commission of Malaysia.
Dr. Mat Said Ismail, the chairman of the Universiti Sains Malaysia Kelantan cooperative, said the inexpensive sale was a project of the Communications and Multimedia Ministry (K-KOMM) that offered a 35% discount, allowing visitors to acquire necessities at lower costs than at stores or factories.
