The Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Ministry (KPDNKK) has launched a Rahmah Rice Sales Initiative to help combat the rising price of imported rice due to local rice shortages.<\/span><\/p>\n

And furthermore, the Deputy Minister of KPDNKK, Fuziah Salleh has also stated that the Rahmah Rice Sales Initiative will be implemented in all parliamentary constituencies, as to ensure that every Malaysian will get to enjoy the discounted price offered.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAt the Rahmah Mobile Sales programme, we (at the ministry) can sell five kilogrammes of imported rice for approximately RM13 to RM14,\u201d said Fuziah Salleh after opening the “Today\u2019s Malaysian E-Commerce and Consumer Protection Regulatory Framework: The Way Forward” seminar<\/a> yesterday.<\/span><\/p>\n

For context, Malaysians are currently grappling with shortages of local rice, as the increase in price for imported rice has caused Malaysians to switch to local rice.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fuziah Salleh also addressed the issue of the high price of rice in <\/span>Dewan rakyat earlier this week<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cRice is a controlled item which KPDN has no authority to control its price. But today we kept hearing the people\u2019s grouses, so KPDN seeks ways to resolve the issue of imported rice price increase and why local rice supply has run out,\u201d said Fuziah at the Dewan Rakyat.<\/span><\/p>\n

So far, the Rahmah Rice Sales initiative has been met with <\/span>favorable response by consumers<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n
