KUALA LUMPUR: The issue of egg shortage in the market is not only a headache for consumers in Peninsular Malaysia, but is also affecting those in Sabah and Sarawak, especially with the Christmas celebrations nearing.

In SABAH, a Bernama survey found that dwindling supplies of the raw food item had affected preparations for the festival, especially for bakeries and confectioneries.
