A survey of Malaysian consumers conducted by Vase.ai found that 39 percent of respondents stated that they bought home cleaning products via ongoing promotions and sales during the COVID-19 outbreak. The same survey found that 27 percent of total respondents said that they had purchased non-food items through such promotions and sales. The majority of respondents, however, had reduced their spending on non-essential purchases.
