KUALA LUMPUR: A total of 242 beverage products have been reformulated to contain less sugar for the Malaysian market under the Healthier Choice Logo initiative following the introduction of the sugar tax on sugary drinks.
"Producers of sugary drinks have reformulated their products to lower sugar levels to avoid paying the tax,” he said during a question-and-answer session in Dewan Negara on Monday . The study also showed that the 40sen per litre sugar tax had minimal impact on market prices, resulting in only a 2.24% increase compared to the anticipated 8.83%, Dr Dzulkefly said.
"Youths and the lower-income B40 group, who are the largest consumers of sugary drinks, have benefitted most from this initiative,” he added.
