KUALA LUMPUR: The government still requires import permits for several agro-food commodities such as chicken, eggs and pork to ensure food safety and protect the country from the threat of disease.
Deputy Agriculture and Food Security Minister Chan Foong Hin said the government also took note that the supply of several food products has been affected due to the spread of zoonotic diseases such as African Swine Fever (ASF) and Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) in source countries.
