KUALA LUMPUR: The RM220mil allocated for the construction of the new Federal Agricultural Marketing Authority (Fama) corporate office in Kelana Jaya will not solve current issues faced by farmers and smallholders, says Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim (PH-Port Dickson).

“They (the government) must change the old ways of thinking. Marketing issues will not be solved by the construction of a new building, ” said Anwar during his debate speech on Budget 2021 at the committee stage in Parliament on Wednesday (Dec 2).
