PORT KLANG: There may be a shortage of mandarin oranges from China as local traders have imported only 35,000 tonnes of the fruit this year, said Agriculture and Agro-based Industry Minister Datuk Seri Ahmad Shabery Cheek.

"We will wait until next week to see if there are any new consignments coming in to increase the supply we have currently," added Ahmad Shabery.
