UN: Healthy diet biting deep into the wallet

A healthy diet in the sultanate has been ranked as the second most expensive in South-East Asia, according to a new set of indicators from the Food and Agriculture Organisation of the United Nations.

The daily cost in Brunei is US$4.41 (RM19.53) per person based on purchasing power parity exchange rates that equal currency buying powers by removing differences in prices between countries, said the report.
