JOHOR BARU: Putrajaya wants to meet with the Indian government over its ban on the export of non-basmati white rice, says Datuk Seri Mohamad Sabu .
“We want to ask them to continue exporting white rice to Malaysia - that is our hope,” he told reporters after attending an appreciation dinner at a hotel here on Sunday for those involved in the recent Pulai and Simpang Jeram by-elections. “When the price of imported rice shot up, the demand for local white rice increased greatly too, causing shortage of supply in several places but we are taking steps to tackle the matter,” said the Kota Raja MP.
