PUTRAJAYA: The approval to export chicken will only be considered if the domestic chicken supply is not affected, so as to ensure the price of chicken can be controlled, says Tan Sri Annaur Musa .
"Apart from the issue of export, we also have to deal with the issue of how long the subsidy is to be maintained."We have to make sure that domestic supply is not affected at the expense of pursuing a higher profit margin, especially in Singapore which is willing to buy at a higher price," he told reporters here on Wednesday .
Annuar who was also the Communications and Multimedia Minister said the Cabinet had discussed the permission to export chicken for which the Department of Veterinary Services had submitted several recommendations. Annuar said that at the moment, the domestic need for chickens in the country is about 70 million birds per month or about 2.2 million chickens a day.
