Chegubard’s group is heading towards Jln Gereja, and shops along Jln Ampang are seen to be open and doing business as usual.



Iskandar, a sundry shop owner, says he knew about the rally but decided to open shop anyway.



“I did not close shop today, because they (the rallyers) are not disrupting my business,” he says.

Business has been brisk for hawkers in the vicinity of the stadium. Mansur Ahmad, 56, says he has sold over 500 kebabs.



"Today, I made RM1,000," he beams.



Mansur has also set up a stall at the Kelab Sultan Sulaiman yesterday, where there was pre-rally gathering.



His daughter, Faeza Mansor, 28, who operates a soup noodle business besides Mansur’s kebab stall, says business has been unusually good.



She estimates about 1,000 bowls of soup noodle sold so far.



"My sister doesn't even want to mince the beef anymore. She is too tired to do it!" she joked.



Faeza is being helped by six of her siblings.
