Legitimate bird's nest traders in Sarawak affected by SFC crackdown, claims trader

SIBU: An ongoing crackdown by the Sarawak Forestry Corporation (SFC) on illegal bird's nest houses is also affecting licensed traders in the state, say industry players.

"All licensed traders involved in the buying and selling of bird's nests in the state have been told to suspend operations. Swiftlet house owners, even legal ones, are also affected," said trader Wong Chu Kion at a press conference here on Wednesday (May 10).
