Raising the price of food is a last option, says the Malaysian Indian Muslim Restaurant Owners Association.
Jawahar Ali Taib Khan, president of the Malaysian Indian Muslim Restaurant Owners Association, said the quality of food and size of portions would remain.
Malaysian Indian Muslim Restaurant Owners Association president Jawahar Ali Taib Khan said the restaurants rely on imported rice for 80% of their usage as local rice was insufficient to meet the demand.He gave an assurance that there would be no drop in the quality of food or the size of portions prepared by the 12,000 members of the association.Jawahar Ali Taib Khan.
Jawahar also said that the association accepted the explanation of Padiberas Nasional Bhd for the price adjustment. Mydin hypermarket managing director Ameer Ali Mydin said the increase will affect household monthly spending on rice.Based on his calculations, considering the hypermarket sells 1,000 packets of 10kg rice a day, the price increase is roughly around RM7 or 22% for every 10kg.
