‘We can’t feed kids at these prices’


PETALING JAYA: School canteen operators are calling on the government to allow them to buy ingredients at subsidised prices and for further exemption of rental in order to keep their prices low while offering affordable and nutritious meals to schoolchildren.

With the rising costs of ingredients and sometimes shortages in food items, they claim that they are struggling, especially when their prices are contractually bound by canteen tenders.
