PUTRAJAYA: Ice manufacturers do not have a good reason to increase the price of their products in the local market, says Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob.

Commenting on the 50sen increase for a packet of ice cubes, the Prime Minister said this should not have happened as the government did not increase water and electricity tariffs.
