KUALA LUMPUR: The Ministry of Plantations and Commodities and the Malaysian Palm Oil Board (MPOB) are intensifying efforts to enable more palm oil smallholders to comply with the Malaysian Sustainable Palm Oil Certification (MSPO) scheme.

MPOB director general Datuk Dr Ahmad Parveez Ghulam Kadir said the implementation of the MSPO since 2015 throughout the Malaysian oil palm industry chain has indirectly proved that the oil palm industry is able to grow rapidly without having to sacrifice forests which are a unique biodiversity habitat in our country.
