Some consumers have recently switched to buying frozen chicken at the market rather than fresh chickens to save up on household expenses as the cost of living rises. — THOMAS YONG/The Star

SERDANG: The price of chicken can be much lower than the previously set controlled price of RM9.40 per kg, even after subsidies and price control are discontinued from today, says Datuk Armizan Mohd Ali.

The acting Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Minister said industry players had assured the government that there would not be a surge in chicken price.
