PETALING JAYA: The new liquor licensing guidelines issued by Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) are not meant to restrict the sale of liquor in the city but to regulate the availability of hard liquor in certain premises, says the Excise Licensing Board of the Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur (ELBKL).
Its chairman Datuk Lau Beng Wei said that the plan to restrict the sale of hard liquor in sundry shops, convenience stores and Chinese medicine shops starting next year would help control the sale and purchase of such liquor in terms of its location, type of premises, and the time of sale.
