Vegetables and fish prices hit by the rains

It’s getting pricier: Fish and vegetables are now more expensive at the SS2 night market in Petaling Jaya.

PETALING JAYA: The continuous rain around the country has clogged up the supply of vegetables and fish in the markets, causing a hike in prices.

The monsoon season and rough seas has taken a toll on fish supply by at least 50%, said North Kuala Terengganu Fishermen Association chairman Jaafar @ A. Rahman Abu Bakar.
