Deputy minister defends beer sales licence for coffee shops, says same as neighbouring countries

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 6 — A deputy minister has justified the enforcement of a policy requiring coffee shops to apply for a licence specifically to sell beer from January 1 onwards.

Earlier, Nga had asked Mohd Shahar why such a policy was to be enforced when the people were still facing hardships, saying the rule would lead to unnecessary bureaucracy and cost. “All coffee shops selling beer are required to apply for a separate licence. Now, to open a new coffee shop one has to apply for a business licence, a signboard licence and now even a beer licence, so just how many licences are needed to sell a coffee?“So these costs will be passed on to consumers and contribute to price hikes which have gotten worse.
