PEKAN: The authorities will not allow anyone to get away with attempts to force price hikes during the coming festive season. Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak, who issued the warning yesterday, said traders, wholesalers and suppliers of goods caught trying such manipulative tactics would be punished. He said attempts to force price increases became noticeable because there was a pattern where the prices of goods became unstable every time a major festival such as Hari Raya Aidilfitri or Chinese New Year drew near. He said such tactics would not work as the government was committed to preventing prices from spiralling out of control.
