SHAH ALAM, Sept 21 — The Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living’s intention to seek the extension of enforcement authority to its personnel to address rice supply issues should be brought up for discussions involving relevant authorities.

“If it reaches a critical level, perhaps we will also involve the Royal Malaysia Police. However, at this moment, it has not reached a critical level. Acting Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Minister Datuk Armizan Mohd Ali was reported as saying that he hoped that the Agriculture and Food Security Ministry could consider the extension of authority to KPDN personnel to tackle issues related to rice supply.

“If you have proof, please inform us. So far, it’s just rumours and we haven’t come across any official evidence,” he said.
