A fine will be imposed on soup kitchens if they don’t move their operation out of KL’s city centre by Monday.
According to a comment by Federal Territories Minister Datuk Seri Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor, the government is looking into cleaning the streets of the homeless.
Tengku Adnan has instituted a 2km radius around Lot 10 shopping mall, where soup kitchens or non-governmental organisations are not allowed to feed the homeless.
“The image of my city is very bad,” he told reporters at a press conference.
“If I don’t do this sort of thing, society won’t be disciplined.”
