TANAH MERAH, 7 JUNE 2026 (SUNDAY) – The Tanah Merah District Council continues to intensify enforcement efforts to ensure the business sector in the district complies with legal provisions through the implementation of Operation Task Force 3.0: Coordination of Licence & Advertisement Rates.
The integrated operation involving the Enforcement Division and the Licensing Division of the MDTM has focused specifically around the business area of Jalan Wan Ahmad today. This initiative is a proactive measure by the council to ensure that every business premise operates legally and complies with the standards, guidelines, and signage and advertisement laws that have been established.
Field inspections found that there are still a few business premise owners who have failed to comply with the regulations under the Trade, Business and Industry Licensing Minor Act (MDTM) 2019. Following this non-compliance, the MDTM has taken decisive action by issuing five (5) Warning Notices to premises found to be operating without a licence. In addition, two (2) Compound Offers were imposed on the owners of premises who failed to renew their business licences.
The Tanah Merah District Council also urges all business premise owners to always ensure that their business licences and advertisement permits are still within the valid period. The council will continue to monitor on an ongoing basis to ensure that the level of compliance of traders is at the highest level.
