PETALING JAYA: Although only used cooking oil (UCO) is meant to be collected for biodiesel production, some collectors are openly purchasing unused cooking oil, raising concerns about subsidy abuse and profiteering.
“We can buy it from you, whether it’s used or not. The oil doesn’t need to be mixed either. We will just collect it,” said a collector based in the Klang Valley.
