JOHOR BAHRU: The Johor government is prepared to offer land for rice farming to help the federal government overcome the shortage of local white rice, menteri besar Onn Hafiz Ghazi said today. He also suggested establishing imported rice subsidies until the local white rice supplies are adequate and called for rice to be repacked into smaller 1kg or 2kg packs to make it easier and cheaper for people struggling to make ends meet.
The government should also consider importing rice from other countries such as Indonesia which offers rice at cheaper prices,” he wrote on Facebook today.“I have visited several locations to see for myself the reality of the situation. Some basic food items, such as local rice, eggs and susbidised cooking oil packets, are in short supply,” he said.Subscribe to our newsletter and get news delivered to your mailbox.
