“Marketers should reason with the common man and reduce the cost of their goods, especially food items, to enable people to afford the costs.

“As the Holy Month of Ramadan approaches, traders should feel the pains of the common man, cut down costs of food items so that they will receive Allah’s blessings in their businesses,’’ the royal father said. (NAN)
