The supply and price of chicken and eggs remain stable amid the strengthening of the ringgit, said Agriculture and Food Security Minister Datuk Seri Mohamad Sabu.
The government should closely monitor the production, supply, wholesale, and retail distribution systems to ensure there are no bottlenecks or profiteering in the market following the discontinuation of the chicken subsidy tomorrow.
Targeted subsidies and price controls for chicken in Malaysia will end on November 1, while subsidies for eggs (grades A, B, and C) will continue using the existing mechanism.
