The prime minister says the government is ready to provide the people assistance amid the growing anxiety over the cost of living.
Anwar Ibrahim said the National Action Council on Cost of Living will hold a special meeting to look into the hike in the prices of essentials.
He said the National Action Council on Cost of Living chaired by deputy prime minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi will hold a special meeting to look into the matter.“The country is already feeling great social anxiety because of the rice export restrictions and the increase in export taxes ,” he told reporters after launching Lembaga Tabung Haji’s 60th anniversary celebration today.
“I have asked Sabah and Sarawak affairs minister Armizan Ali and deputy domestic trade and cost of living minister Fuziah Salleh to focus on the matter,” he said. The Perikatan Nasional chairman called for stricter and more holistic enforcement to ensure there is no manipulation of local rice supplies. He said the government should increase its stockpile and make efforts to increase production.
