"Fast-food outlets in the state can apply to open for business from noon instead of 3pm during Ramadan.
Local Government Committee chairman Takiyuddin Hassan, however, said the operators have to observe the fasting regulations of not selling food to Muslims.
“Perhaps, they can operate from noon. It depends but they must approach us formally,” he said.
Fast-food outlets, franchise restaurants including nasi kandar shops had been directed to open from 3pm onwards during Ramadan."
