Cooking oil in 5 kg bottle sold at RM30 at Perak AKM tour

PASIR SALAK, July 1 (Bernama) — Visitors at the Perak-level Jelajah Aspirasi Keluarga Malaysia or Malaysian Family Aspirations Tour (AKM) will have the opportunity to get cooking oil at only RM30 for a five kilogramme (kg) bottle beginning today.

The three-day AKM Tour programme is being held at the Dato’ Sagor Circuit in Kampung Telok in Kampung Gajah here.

A visitor, Nurafifah Radzuan, 22, said the initiative to sell goods at low prices would ease the financial burden brought on by the rise in the prices of goods.

“This will ease the financial burden of the people because the price difference is huge, which is about RM12,” the teacher told Bernama.

Meanwhile, other main attractions at the Perak AKM Tour are the discounted summons by the Road Transport Department, Royal Malaysia Police and Perak Tengah District Council (MDPT).

Government retiree Shamsul Azri, 67, said he was able to settle his outstanding summonses in just half an hour.

“I have settled 10 summonses for just RM650 compared to the original amount of RM1,300. Apart from that, I can also buy many items here at cheaper prices such as cooking oil, eggs and chicken,” he said.

The Perak AKM Tour opened its doors today with more than 30,000 visitors expected to attend the three-day programme.
