Chickens and eggs to cost slightly more, says Fomca

PETALING JAYA: Consumers are likely to pay slightly more for chickens and eggs when their prices are left to market forces beginning July 1, according to the Federation of Malaysian Consumers Associations (Fomca).

Chief executive officer Dr Saravanan Thambirajah expects an increase of between 1% and 5% once the ceiling prices and subsidies are removed.
