More sugar options to hit shelves


PUTRAJAYA: The sugar retail market has taken a step towards liberalisation after the Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Ministry (KPDN) allowed the sale of non-price controlled sugar.

In a statement yesterday, Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Minister Datuk Seri Salahuddin Ayub said this type of sugar aimed at the premium market, sold as Refined White Sugar Jernih (also known as pure refined white sugar), is not subjected to price controls unlike conventional granulated sugar.
