We know we are late in posting this, post it now better than never. Also we might slow down on our update in food post as you know the fuel prices are increasing, a drastic increment of more than 40% increment for petrol and more than 60% increment for diesel will indirectly make us reconsider about our budget to dine out and would dine out less frequent too. Rest assure that we will update from time to time, just slow down a bit for the time being. Thanks for your support.

Effective on 1st June 2008, the ceiling price for the broken grain Super, 10% and 5% Super Spesial will be standardised nationwide. Coloured stickers will be displayed on the rice packs for easy differentiation.

Here’s the pricings for the controlled rice:
Super 15 rice(blue sticker) is priced RM1.80 per kg
Rice with 10 per cent broken grains (yellow sticker) is priced RM2.70 per kg
Those with five per cent broken grains (purple sticker) is priced RM2.80 per kg.

These are not controlled:
Beras Putih, Super (Import)
Beras Istimewa, e.g. Masmati, Pulut, Beras Perang, Beras Merah, Herba Ponni, Bario etc.
Beras Wangi, Super (Import)
Beras Rebus

However, we just found out that some retailers are trying to earn quick money from the controlled rice nad non controlled rice! They try to cheat their way tru’ by placing labels on the incorrect rice! I think this is a serious offence and the ministry in charged must send thier men to check on it before it gets bad. If you found out any, do report them.
