Perak Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Dr Zamry Abdul Kadir has called on the federal government to further reduce the price of chicken for the Hari Raya festival to ease the burden on the lower income group.
"As chicken is a price-controlled item, if the suppliers want to raise the prices, they will go up based on several factors. However, I hope the prices can be further reduced," he told reporters after presenting Aidilfitri aid to his 113 foster children of various races in Ipoh today.
The fixed prices from next Friday are RM7.70 per kg for standard birds, RM6.40 for live chickens and RM8.50 for super chickens (dressed and cleaned). – Bernama
