As said many times, agriculture production in this country is inefficient, expensive (e.g minimum wages) and lack of scale.

BS la...
Many ppl wouldn't want to do farming <- hard work. Better lagi, we use the fund to invest in condo and let the cow stay there.
'Cheap' chicken wings and meat available at your nearest supermarket if u know where to go.
I got a customer, every week ada masuk chicken illegally. No a single fxck was given by kastam. Kastam might have operation every feel month just for show. But then, every Sunday, 'we' go pray in Church, so everyone is good people.
Also, banyak 'cheap' veg imported from CCP and Mini CCP (aka Vietnam), don't be shy. Coz cheap.

It is cheaper to import jiken from Thailand, Brazil, etc. so are most vegetables, fruit, fish, prawn, rice, etc.

In Thailand, PRC, etc don't have subsidy yet food price is cheaper.

Minimum wages? year 2025 only get paid 1.7k per month considered expensive?
More like MY (gov and mostly the people) buat bodoh, tak mahu upgrade and use technologies. Prefer buy cheap veg from CCP.

Meanwhile, palm oil 'tycoon' untung banyak. On the surface, singing "sustainable palm oil", but behind the scene, no a single fxck is givenĀ  icon_idea.gif

Most if not all agriculture workers are foreign workers. Comparable workers in Thailand are paid thb 360/day and are more productive.

dont know what toking u, but only 2feidei jiken are imported from Thailand in Bolehland.
kepsi jiken are all bred locally. Bolehland is self sufficient in kepsi jiken

bolehland may be self sufficient in whole fresh jiken but all the big boys import frozen jiken breast, wings, legs, etc from Thailand and Brazil.
