Malaysian Palm Oil Board: Cooking oil in polybags meets prescribed quality, not recycled

KUALA LUMPUR, June 18 — The quality of olein cooking oil in one kg polybags sold in the local market meets the prescribed quality and not recycled, said Malaysian Palm Oil Board director-general Ahmad Parveez Ghulam Kadir.

“The perception that subsidised cooking oil in polybags is of lower quality is wrong. The price is subsidised and controlled by the government, hence it is cheaper than the price of bottled cooking oil in the market,” he said in a statement today. “This targeted subsidy is for consumers who buy cooking oil in one kg polybags for personal use, especially the low-income group.

Elaborating, Ahmad Parveez said there are 49 refineries and 312 packaging companies that are actively operating for the supply of cooking oil to the local market which is estimated at one million tonnes a year.
