KOTA BHARU, Oct 27 — Shoppers have been streaming into Kelantan’s gold shops to snap up jewellery as prices sag to about RM503 a gramme yesterday, the New Straits Times reported today.
Many shops around Pasar Siti Khadijah in the Kelantan capital here were crowded with customers, with gold priced between RM503 and RM504 a gramme, according to the newspaper.
“Whenever prices drop, I take the opportunity to buy more for my collection,” Halima Osman, 45, a customer at one of the shops, told the newspaper.
She said the fall was sharper than she expected, as prices had earlier approached RM600 a gramme.
