BALING, June 11 — The implementation of the European Union Deforestation-free Regulation and several other regulations introduced by Europe are seen as a form of discrimination aimed at restricting businesses and Malaysia’s palm oil industry.

“For example, comparatively to our palm oil, Europe’s soy oil cultivation needs a larger land for production and they have to throw it away and replant it to get results, unlike the palm trees that are planted today which can get results or produce oil for up to 25 years. Fadillah, who is also Plantation and Commodities Minister, said that his party had held a discussion with his Indonesian counterpart about the discriminatory practice which would also impact their oil palm industry.

Recently, Fadillah and Indonesia’s Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs Dr Airlangga Hartarto took part in a joint mission to the European Union to protect the interests of the palm oil sector of both countries.
