MDTM Issues Warning Notices and Compounds to Recalcitrant Traders

TANAH MERAH, 28 APRIL 2026 (TUESDAY) – The Licensing and Enforcement Division of the Tanah Merah District Council continued to crack down on business owners who persist in operating without a license and failing to renew their business licenses as stipulated under the Trade, Business and Industry (Tanah Merah District Council) Minor Enactment 2019.

Following inspections in the areas of Kampung Batu Gajah, Jalan Humaira 1, Jalan Pechong, and Jalan Wan Ahmad, the Council took action by issuing Three (3) Notices under Enactment 3 (carrying out business activities without a valid license) and Five (5) Compounds under Enactment 7 were imposed on traders who failed to renew their business licenses within the specified period.

Additionally, one (1) Warning Notice under Enactment 34(2)(a) was also issued to ensure compliance with dress code ethics and regulations.

The MDTM wishes to emphasize and remind all business owners in the Tanah Merah district of their responsibility to register their businesses and ensure that their business licenses are always renewed before the expiration date.

MDTM will not tolerate any party that remains defiant, and strict action including immediate imposition of compounds, seizure of goods, or prosecution in court will be taken against premises owners found to be in non-compliance with the directives and the Minor Enactment that have been established.
