Packet cooking oil: Govt will consider various measures before taking action against petty traders, says PM

KUALA LUMPUR: Taking enforcement action against petty traders using subsidised cooking oil for commercial purposes is not an easy task as the government needs to consider various matters before taking action, says Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob.

In a post on Facebook and Twitter, the Prime Minister said there were parties who tried to twist his statement in the Dewan Rakyat on Monday (July 18) regarding the use of subsidised oil packets by "Makcik Goreng Pisang", referring to petty traders in general.
