Palm oil body to counter lies


This campaign is to encourage balanced debate and correct the myths, said MPOC CEO Tan Sri Dr Yusof Basiron.

KUALA LUMPUR: Palm oil may be the most consumed oil in the world, accounting for 35% of the global vegetable oil market, but many untruths generated by anti-palm oil lobbies circulate around the commodity.

To counter such misconception and negativity, the Malaysian Palm Oil Council (MPOC) has initiated “a mark of provenance and an information campaign for more responsible palm oil” in France and Belgium.
