PETALING JAYA: Economists are proposing that Malaysia mount an aggressive campaign to highlight the benefits of palm oil to woo new markets in the event India decides to boycott Malaysian palm oil in a row sparked by criticisms of its actions in Kashmir.Barjoyai Bardai of Universiti Tun Abdul Razak suggests that Malaysia promote the rich beta carotene content of its palm oil and undertake aggressive marketing efforts in the Netherlands, Turkey, US, Iran and Spain.
“Production of protein and fat flour as food enrichment, flavour and an energy provider could create a new market for oil palm,” he told FMT, adding that this could help attract prospects from the Netherlands, Turkey, the United States, Iran and Spain. “Then the Europeans and Americans will be keen to import more palm oil from us,” he said when contacted, adding that these two markets are bigger than India’s.
While most of the economists who spoke to FMT agree that the government should try to resolve the matter diplomatically, they also suggested Malaysia look at alternative markets. On the home front, Yeah, says the government should accelerate the implementation of B20 biodiesel – a blend of 20% palm methyl ester and 80% petroleum diesel – to absorb the anticipated rise in stocks.PKR’s Wong Chen, who heads the party’s investment bureau, shares a similar sentiment, saying there is a need to drive up internal consumption via programmes such as biodiesel.
Ask the Mahathirs to buy up all the palm oil India has rejected with their immense family wealth in totality. Swim sink drink eat for the rest of their lives or kekayaan sampai akhirat nanti. Best advertisement for our palm oil Long live Mahathirs drinking living eating our oil!
