KUALA LUMPUR: A lawmaker has questioned the supposed prevalence of imported rice in the market, urging that locally-produced rice must be made easily available

While local rice is priced at an affordable RM2.60 per kg on paper, Hassan argued that this was meaningless if it remained unavailable in the market.
