KUALA LUMPUR: The National Association of Smallholders Malaysia (PKPKM) is asking the government to delve deeper into issues faced by rubber smallholders
Deputy president Adzmi Hassan said that attention to the issue is also necessary considering that the income of rubber smallholders and the prices of the commodity are currently disproportionate to the current cost of living.
"Nevertheless, don’t just a one-off assistance only... there needs to be a way to raise the prices of rubber as well. For example, the government recently announced an allocation for rubber roads, we do not know how this allocation will be translated in the form of a price increase,” he told Bernama when contacted.
