Rahmah Ramadan bazaar: Are the prices really 'compassionate?'

The Rahmah Ramadan Bazaar (BRR) concept was recently introduced by the Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Ministry at 38 locations nationwide, under the Payung Rahman initiative, to reduce the people's cost of living.

Malaysiakini carried out surveys at two BRRs in the Klang Valley - one at the Campbell Complex in Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman (TAR), and another at Precinct 14, Putrajaya, to check whether the prices are really 'rahmah' (compassionate) as advertised, and the food is of quality.
