KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 13 — Retailers may be fined up to RM500,000 for selling three-ply surgical face masks above RM1 once the price ceiling takes effect Saturday, said Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Minister Datuk Alexander Nanta Linggi said.
The fine was derived from the Price Control and Anti-Profiteering Act 2011 that also provided for compounds of up to RM250,000 per offence.

KUALA LUMPUR: A consumer group said the proposed RM1 per unit retail price for three-ply face masks is still too high.
Members of the public, however, were of the opinion that a lower price could affect the quality of the essential item.
Malaysian Muslim Consumer Association lead activist Datuk Nadzim Johan said the price should be between 10 sen and 50 sen per piece.

PUTRAJAYA, Aug 5 — The ceiling price for face masks, which will be reduced to RM1.20 from RM1.50 beginning August 15, may be further lowered depending on the supply situation, said Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Minister Datuk Alexander Nanta Linggi.
He said the price reduction was decided two weeks before the government made it mandatory for everyone to wear one from August 1 in public transportation and crowded places, apart from being a gradual step by the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs (KPDNHEP).
