KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 23 — The current local white rice shortage has nothing to do with a “cartel” as alleged but is because Malaysia has not reached self-sufficiency levels despite being a producing nation, Datuk Mahfuz Omar said.
“There is no reason for farmers to sell paddy to cartels because the current minimum price for paddy is high, between RM1,800 and RM1,700 per ton compared to RM1,200 previously,” Mahfuz told the Malay daily. Agriculture and Food Security Minister Datuk Seri Mohamad Sabu has touted the paddy planting methods by farmers in Sekinchan, Selangor as a model that can be adopted by other states to increase their yields.also reported Malaysian Muslim Wholesalers and Retailers Association president Abdul Ali Fiddik saying that there is no reason for any party to hide supplies of local white rice as the profit from selling it was not high — affirming Mahfuz’s assertion.
