00:00As roads were closed for the Turun Anwar rally,
00:05many businesses along Jalan Tuanku Abdul Rahman in Kuala Lumpur
00:08also shut their doors, citing safety concerns and lack of foot traffic.
00:13Those that opted to open have reported zero customers since morning.
00:18The traders said weekend business would usually mean steady income for them,
00:22but the customers were missing,
00:24as most people in the area had come solely for the protest.
00:30This is not the result, because many people are not buying.
00:35They are not the ones who do the demo.
00:37The effect of them is for us, for us, for us, at Jalan Tuanku.
00:43If there are demonstrations like this, there are no customers.
00:46People are afraid to go to KL.
00:49Today, with the meeting,
00:52it was a very effect of business because we didn't have a customer.
00:58And we hope that this person doesn't ruin anything.
01:02We hope that everything is smooth to them and to us.
01:07So, today is like a bit different from other days.
01:10Normally, Sunday is quite...
01:13Saturday, Sunday, normally our business is picked up a bit,
01:16but today is a bit slow because I think the customer is very scared to come to Jalan Tuanku.
01:21Because the road is closed, and some people are very scared because they're not used to, maybe.
01:27That's why they don't want to come to Jalan Tuanku.
01:29The Turun Anwar rally drew thousands of protesters to Dataran Merdeka,
01:34calling for political reform.
01:35Then we have to go to Jalan Tuanku.
