Malaysia to block unfair EU resolutions on palm oil


Safeguarding income: Mah says Malaysia has to act to safeguard the income of farmers dependent on the crop for their livelihood.

PETALING JAYA: Malaysia is currently hot on its heels to block the discriminatory European Union (EU) resolutions on palm oil prior to its full enforcement.

This year, the EU Parliament passed two resolutions – to impose single certified sustainable palm oil (CSPO) scheme for Europe-bound palm oil exports after 2020 and to phase out palm oil from the EU biofuel programme by 2020.
