KUALA LUMPUR: The Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Ministry (KPDN) raided an area in Segambut Dalam known as "Mini Jakarta" here yesterday, which has a large number of foreigners operating businesses.

The raid was carried out by KPDN enforcement officers following a recent viral TikTok video that claimed the businesses there were mostly monopolised by foreigners without licence.

At least 18 business premises were inspected during the operation.

Some of the operators were issued notices and summons for various violations, including failure to display business licence, expired business licence, using non-existent business owners and addresses, and hiring foreign nationals.
