If chicken expensive means God wants to test people's iman. Maybe he saw too much wastage.

It guides people to spend less during ramadhan. jangan beli ikut kemahuan. in the end, tak habis makan.

no wonder people with RM 4K/m cannot survive

nope, chicken seller plenty of meleis, but rarer/supplier = majority cainis.

and pleaselah, why so fast to tag people with racist tag? i've been saying as it is since my first post in this thread. some of you are implying wrongly. i didnt imply anything. I say it as it is. it's not my fault if my knowledge extends to those things beyond your comprehension/experience

Chicken Among Price-Control Goods for New Year
MALAYSIA - Live chicken, standard chicken, super chicken and chicken eggs (grade A, B, C) are among eleven products listed as price control goods for the Chinese New Year celebration from 10-21 February.



The price of live chicken was set between RM5.85 to RM6.10 a kilogram in the peninsular, RM6.30 to RM8.70 in Sabah, Sarawak and RM6.30 in Labuan, while Standard chicken prices range from RM6.90 to RM7.20 a kilogram in the peninsular, RM9.30 to RM10.30 in Sabah, Sarawak and RM9.30 in Labuan.

Pork was also among the products listed, Domestic Trade, Cooperatives and Consumerism Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob announced Wednesday.

According to Bernama.com, Ismail Sabri said it was the first time pork was listed under price control goods.

"The price of pork has been set as RM14 in the peninsular, RM10 to RM16 in Sabah and Sarawak and RM20 in Labuan," Mr Sabri said.

He added that since pork was included in the list for the first time, pork sellers must get a special licence issued by the ministry, for free.

have you actually been to the pasar/hypermart on weeks heading to CNY? what is written on paper is one thing, the other is to experience it yourself. on second thought, have you actually ever buy raw chicken yourself?

Yes, I have. Do you have any evidence at all that it's at RM4-5 besides your allegations?

I think it is just a supply and demand issue.

In big towns and cities nowadays the non-Muslims also like to visit the Muslim stalls. You don't have the same thing for Chinese New Year.

Also one very major difference to note, the biggest event for Chinese New Year is the reunion dinner. Usually there is chicken served.

There might be higher demand for chickens but it is only for one dinner.

Compare that to the demand for chickens for an entire month of Ramadhan. And the open houses.

Chinese open houses during Chinese New Year usually have servings of tidbits. Whereas Malay open houses.....wow...so much food. Satay, curry ayam, rendang ayam, lemang, etc. etc.

dagnarus, I think what you say doesn't hold water.
