Challenges In the Fasting Month

Entrepreneurs who operate restaurants and eateries are affected when the month of Ramadhan approaches as they have to close their doors during the day to respect the month of fasting. They will have to look for alternative sources of income and most of them sell Hari Raya clothing and accessories like songkok, buttons for the Malay dress, hari raya cards, perfumes and the like. Those who have alternative source of income will have no problem but for those who are new in business will have to adjust their cash-flow. That is the life of the Malay or Indian Muslim Entrepreneur during the month of fasting. These are some of the challenges they have to face in their business.
