KAJANG, June 28 — The Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security today denied that there has been an increase in the price of local white rice, as claimed by certain quarters.
“This is to ensure that factories do not compete for raw materials by offering higher prices so that the chain below is not affected. It also ensures that there is a stable supply with reasonable prices and this intervention measure is temporary,” he said. Chan, meanwhile, said that the price of imported white rice is not controlled by the government, but instead is determined by the market.
