Malaysia Airports Holdings (MAHB) has been asked to explore ways to ensure goods and food sold at airports are priced reasonably, according to Tourism, Arts and Culture Minister Tiong King Sing.
Tiong added his ministry had received complaints from the public over the steep prices of items such as chocolates, food and alcohol at the airport shops compared with the prices outside.
“Visitors at the airport have mentioned that items sold at duty-free shops are expensive and that it is cheaper to buy from outside,” he told a press conference at the launch of ShopLAH at Kuala Lumpur International Airport Terminal 1 on Tuesday.
