SHAH ALAM, Sept 21 — The stock of local white rice in Selangor is sufficient based on the state’s monthly requirement which is 45,500 tonnes a month.

“Yesterday, the State Executive Council Meeting has called the Selangor Paddy and Rice Regulatory Division on rice supply and they reported having sufficient rice and the people need not make panic purchases,” he said at a media conference after officiating the Ehsan Rahmah Sales Appreciation and launch of the Selangor Agricultural Development Corporation new logo here today.

“This is equivalent to an output of 4.19 tonnes for each hectare. But last year we managed to produce 75,000 tonnes from Sekinchan alone due to paddy diseases and uncertain weather,” he said.
