KOTA BARU: The government has discussed the issue of abolishing the packet cooking oil subsidy to address the problem of leakages, says Economy Minister Rafizi Ramli.
The Pandan Member of Parliament said the issue needs to await the decision by the Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Ministry, which will present it to the Cabinet at a suitable time. The media previously reported that the government was advised to abolish the packet cooking oil subsidy and replace it with financial aid to the targeted groups to address the issue of misappropriation and leakage.
"We need to develop a development format and model first, not only in Kelantan but all the bordering states. Only then can we determine the amount of allocation and how the border development will be implemented," he said.
