Seria Food Complex Comes Under Scrutiny
By Liza Mohd

Seria - Cooks without proper attire, exposed garbage bins and wet floors were some of the common problems found by personnel of the Kuala Belait and Seria Municipal Department during an inspection carried out at the Seria Seri Selera Food Complex, yesterday.

Twenty stalls in the complex were screened in the operation involving four sections of the department, namely the Enforcement Unit and the Building Control, Licensing, Services and Maintenance sections.

The joint internal operation codenamed 'Operasi Bersepadu Dalaman' was aimed at ensuring that businesses comply with rules and conditions stated under the Municipal licence, whilst at the same time reminding stall operators to promote cleanliness among their employees in terms of attire, food handling and preparation methods.

The operation was also conducted to check for illegal renovations, workers' status and all matters relating to business operations.

Yesterday's inspection was the third joint internal operation led by the Enforcement Unit, since the first inspection that was carried out on November 29 last year at the Kuala Belait wet market and the second, at the Tudong Saji and Gerai Bunga Simpur on January 23, this year.

The Head of Enforcement Unit said such operations would not only be restricted to eateries but will also be extended to other business premises under the jurisdiction of the Kuala Belait and Seria Municipal Department.

He added that the department is planning more operations in the future. -- Courtesy of Borneo Bulletin
