TANAH MERAH, 04 MAY 2026 (MONDAY) – The Licensing Division in collaboration with the Enforcement Division of MDTM has strengthened legal action through the implementation of Task Force 3.0 Operation targeting the alignment of license rates and advertisement displays.

This integrated monitoring operation was conducted at two strategic locations, namely around Kampung Batu Gajah and Jalan Wan Ahmad to ensure that every business premise operates in accordance with the established legal framework.

During the operation, the Council issued one (1) compound offer for the offence of failing to renew a business license and four (4) warning notices to premise owners found conducting business activities without a valid license.
All these actions were taken under the Trade, Business and Industry Licensing (MDTM) Minor Act 2019.

The Tanah Merah District Council urges and reminds all business owners to always be aware of the license expiration dates and ensure that the premises have valid permits. The Council will also not compromise and will continue to conduct ongoing monitoring.
