Ameer Ali Mydin says the move to allow restaurant operators to buy imported white rice at wholesale prices may lead to monopolies.
Mydin hypermarket managing director Ameer Ali Mydin said the current low ceiling price of RM26 per 10kg is discouraging millers from producing white rice for the local market.
The Mydin hypermarket managing director said local millers were being discouraged from producing the rice due to its current low ceiling price of RM26 per 10kg. Ameer also said the government’s recent move to allow restaurant operators to buy imported white rice at wholesale prices was unwise, warning that it would benefit bigger businesses at the expense of small traders.
“How will the government ensure that food operators will be given preferential pricing? Malaysia is a big country with food stalls all over the place.
