MALAYSIA TO ASK MAS TO LOWER AGRI FREIGHT COSTS

BIRMINGHAM - Malaysian Agriculture and Agro-based Industry Minister Muhyiddin Yassin will ask Malaysia Airlines (MAS) to consider a reasonable freight cost for Malaysian agricultural products as the government moves to introduce the goods to a wider international market.

He said a freight cost that was similar to or higher than that for other goods would not help the government's mission.

JAPAN STARTS RICE EXPORTS TO CHINA

TOKYO - Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe participated on Friday in a ceremony marking the start of Japanese rice exports to China and expressed his hope that the agricultural product fits the diet of Chinese people.
