BENTONG, July 4 — The subsidised cooking oil quota of 55,000 metric tonnes per month or 660,000 metric tonnes a year has been sufficient so far, says Deputy Plantation Industries and Commodities Minister Datuk Seri Wee Jeck Seng.
“Before this, there was no issue, only during certain seasons, and like recently, it has been said not to be not enough. We have to see why this happened... because the amount allocated is enough. When asked about the Sarawak government’s recent policy of restricting the use of land for oil palm cultivation to focus on strengthening the food industry, Wee said his ministry would need to get further details regarding the matter.
