KUCHING, Oct 2: Padawan Municipal Council (MPP) advises eateries and food and beverage (F&B) outlets to provide fork, spoon and chopsticks to be soaked in hot water for disinfection purposes.

MPP in a statement said it is one of the terms for eateries to maintain their trading licence.


The municipal council added that action can be taken against eateries or F&B outlets including revoking their licences if they do not follow the latest guidelines.

MPP urges traders and businesses operating within its jurisdiction to adhere and comply with the standard operating procedures (SOP) by the government in order to curb the transmission of Covid-19.
