GUA MUSANG, May 21 (Bernama) -- Fresh chicken became one of the top attractions for visitors at the mobile Rahmah MADANI Sale in Kampung Jerek here, where 400 birds were sold out in about 45 minutes today.
A visitor from Kampung Pasir Tumboh, Ilah Idris, 43, said the 10-kilometre journey he made with a friend to shop for supplies of dry and wet food at lower prices than usual was well worth it.

"Besides that, I was also able to buy a 10-kg bag of rice for RM35 compared to the normal price of RM39 a bag," he said at the Nenggiri state constituency Rahmah MADANI Sale.
Meanwhile, the owner of SMS One Solutions, Sabariah Mohamed Sayuti, 43, said the response from the local community was very encouraging and the sale was eagerly awaited by residents, including those who live in the outskirts more than 30 km away.
Sabariah said in addition to fresh chicken, 700 bags of local watermelon brand rice and mango brand rice consisting of 300 five-kg bags, 200 10-kg bags and 200 nine-kg bags were also up for sale and among the must-buy items for every customer.
