MSPO can counter negativity

The MSPO shows that Malaysia supports sustainability practices, says Dorab Mistry.

THE move to have the Malaysian Sustainable Palm Oil (MSPO) standard for Malaysian palm oil can quell negative campaigns against the commodity which has placed unfair pressure on the country.

Dorab Mistry, director of Godrej International Ltd which engages in the trading of vegetable oils worldwide, says the MSPO branding “will augur well for the Malaysian palm oil industry.”
