SINGAPORE — Five days after Malaysia enforced a ban on chicken exports, some Singapore suppliers are halting production lines and putting workers on leave

, some Singapore suppliers are halting production lines and putting workers on leave while some wet market stallholders say they will close until the ban is lifted.to stabilise chicken supplyAbout a third of Singapore’s chicken supply is imported from Malaysia, with most being imported live for slaughtering here, said the Singapore Food Agency.

“We don’t know how long the ban will last. If it’s just a month, we don’t want to make big changes to our manpower,” Mr Ma said. “We will definitely need to reduce the workforce,” Mr Sim told TODAY on June 1, adding that the company will be hit by a 95 per cent cut to its revenue. Employees of chicken importers are not the only ones taking a break while waiting for supply to resume. Local wet market stall Lian Heng Poultry Supply’s owner Mr Chua, who declined to give his full name, said that he will take this period as an opportunity to rest while his stall at Taman Jurong remains closed.

“I am worried because my customers want fresh chickens and the price of frozen chickens is going up. The price is very high now and it is the highest I’ve ever seen them. I need to think twice if I want to buy frozen chicken now,” she said.I am worried because my customers want fresh chickens and the price of frozen chickens is going up.

Where got no rest days for the 365 days ay long foods or animal handlers. Let them get some rest days like other people do. They might be relaxed n become more softer heart after a break. Besides Msia is trying hard to export chicken back soon.
