Crazy, Malaysia is the world's largest producer of palm oil which makes vegetable cooking oil

Yet there can be shortage of supply...

Manager433 SG

Because their cooking oil cheaper than Singapore mah. Tio bo?

sbst275 SG

KL controls the prices

It's way below market price, so I believe those manufacturers rather sell it to other countries

It has happened to sugar and diesel... Tat time M'sians kpkb no sugar, yet we still see supplies of KSL sugar in Singapore sent by KTM trains Mr. Green

Fatum SG

so they started kpkb about singkies going over there and buying up their cooking oil yet ? ...

sbst275 SG

They're now doing checks at Customs, making sure no Singkie buy more than 5kg of palm oil Laughing

Fatum SG

that's why they are stupid ....

instead of working on increasing supply they choose to whip the most convenient bogeyman ... Laughing

sbst275 SG

To think they're the world's no 1 producer in palm oil.. now tak ada minyak Laughing

Now they say US$100 per barrel of oil is good for Malaysia... when they still have to subsidise ppl

sbst275 SG

I suspect next to kena is flour

maggot SG

Some people leak out the formula for making cooking oil type of diesel Surprised

So self made diesel is definitely cheaper than those in petrol stations Laughing

sbst275 SG

Today's ST reported tat from now, Singkie's are banned from buying their palm based cooking oil Laughing

sbst275 SG

now 1kg bottle also kena banned from being bought out

sbst275 SG

They now arrested a woman for hoarding onto cooking oil

Kept tonnes of cooking oil in her home w/o wholesale permit

They had to stop production for a while in certain areas during the flood Laughing
First they need to get rid of their stupid subsidy to stop companies from smuggling oil out of the country

sbst275 SG

Got 1 refinery kpkb

Their capacity is 3000 tons yet MPOB only give them 960 tons of quota Laughing

In fact Sheng Siong does sell the subisidised Knife Oil 5kg one

elindra SG

Well their shortage is due to their stupidity
can only say orbi good Laughing

sbst275 SG

Malaysia boleh

but they are still selling oil to us Laughing

tat time sugar they kpkb no sugar, we still got supplies from KSL, tons of it sent by KTM train

elindra SG

All they need to do is to take away their subsidy and voila lots of supply Laughing

sbst275 SG

yeah Laughing

but many Malaysians would be bitter to it... but it's costing the govt $$ to subsidise the oil when the money could be used for other things

but like this we good, lack behind in devt to us

Hello Kitty SG

sbst275 SG
