KUALA LUMPUR, March 31 – Malaysia is stepping up measures to safeguard food security as global uncertainties from the West Asia conflict and local hot weather pose challenges to supply and agricultural productivity, said Agriculture and Food Security Minister Datuk Seri Mohamad Sabu.
The government is enhancing supply management, strengthening the agro-food value chain, and implementing mitigation strategies to ensure stability in domestic food markets.
Mohamad assured that essential food supplies for Aidilfitri will remain sufficient, accessible, and competitively priced, thanks to coordinated efforts between KPKM, KPDN, government agencies, and industry players.
He urged farmers, breeders, and consumers to continue supporting a resilient and sustainable food system, ensuring Malaysia’s food security remains robust under all circumstances.
