Managing Director of the State Trading Organization (STO), Hussain Amru has advised the public to shop online from the STO Supermart instead of going to the store physically.

A tweet sent out by Amru said that customers can shop from the Supermart online via the e-store instead of going in person and making the store unsafe due to crowds.

He said that the STO is working to implement physical distancing and so advised those visiting the store in person to practice distancing and stay in the allocated boxes drawn at the store.

Amru said that only 30 people would be allowed inside the store at a time and advised those in queue outside the store to practice physical distancing as well.
