KUALA LUMPUR, July 11 — Popular departmental store Sogo KL said today it would temporarily shut down to comply with the First Phase of the National Recovery Plan, in yet another sign of confusion that has resulted from the constantly changing standard operating procedures.

The move comes two days after Isetan said it would do the same following growing public criticism on social media. Critics argued that departmental stores are not essential services and should not be allowed to operate.

Sogo’s management said in a short statement issued this morning that it would temporarily close starting today until further notice.

The departmental store, located on Jalan Tunku Abdul Rahman here, had been operating since most parts of Selangor and several localities in the capital city had been placed under tight restrictions a week ago.
