Unauthorized vendors near Mandalay Moat fined

Officials are taking action against vendors selling goods without permission around the Mandalay City Moat attracting local and foreign travellers, according to the Mandalay City Development Committee (MCDC).
According to the committee, vendors selling goods on the southern moat along 26th Street, the northern moat along 12th Street, and the western moat along 80th Street have been fined since the third week of June.
The measure is taken to ensure that the areas where the majority of tourists visit are not littered or messy.
In addition, vendors selling food and other items around the moat without permission from the Mandalay City Development Committee are being investigated by a combined team. Twenty vendors found selling without permission have been fined between K10,000 and K50,000. — TWA/TKO
