JOHOR BAHRU: The supply of chicken is sufficient until the Hari Raya Aidilfitri celebrations at the end of next month, says the minister of domestic trade and cost of living, Salahuddin Ayub.
He said consumers need not worry about supplies. “Detailed information from the veterinary services department shows that there is enough supply until Aidilfitri,” he said.
Salahuddin said enforcement officers from his ministry had been instructed to tighten monitoring throughout the month of Ramadan until after Aidilfitri.
He advised traders to follow the government-controlled ceiling price of RM9.40 (per kg).”If they are dealing with a supply issue or need help from the ministry, we are ready to help,” he said.
