Rain or shine, the native midin is on the menu


A native woman selling the ubiquitous midin, a local fern picked from the wild, with her husband at Teku pasar Tamu in Sibu.

SIBU: While the prices of most vegetables are affected by inclement weather, the humble midin seems immune to market fluctuations caused by the vagaries of mother nature.

Sibu Vegetable Planters Association advisor Kong Hua Kuong said the price of midin – a local fern picked from the wild and used as a vegetable – has remained stable for years.
