PETALING JAYA: As Muslims begin their fasting today, many are not planning to overindulge despite the relaxed restrictions at bazaars and restaurants, following two years of celebrating under the constraints of the movement control order.

Many families are still mindful of spending too much, given the economic challenges during the month where Muslims are also supposed to be abstaining from wastage by making more homemade dishes instead of buying unnecessary food that end up in the bin.
