新任農業及農基工業部長沙拉胡丁阿育今夜發表聲明指出,政府已經決定結束推行了40多年的白米壟斷經營措施;今後國家稻米公司Bernas將不再擁有壟斷全國白米進口經營專利!


換句話說,希盟政府決定開放大馬白米進口及批發市場,國內米糧批發商只要擁有入口準證,誰都可以從國外進口白米;不再受Bernas控制。

這對於國內米糧批發商,尤其是華裔米商(國內私人米糧批發商主要由華人經營)來說,肯定是天大的好消息!


沙拉胡丁部長表示,白米市場被國家稻米公司長期壟斷,衍生了很多問題。這包括本地稻農的利益被剝削,國家稻米公司還涉嫌以低價收購白米,然後以高價逼批發商收購,從中賺取暴利。

《但是國家稻米公司的常年財政報告卻還是出現虧本的賬目,這裡面肯定有問題》!


實上,米糧市場對國家稻米公司Bernas早就忍氣吞聲多年。根據熟悉市場運作者爆料,國家稻米公司從東盟國家如泰國、越南、柬埔寨、緬甸入口品質普通的 白米,然後以最高級白米價格強迫批發商買貨。這就是為什麼國人總是覺得國內白米煮出來的米飯不夠香Q,一旦去到中國、泰國、越南吃到當地的白米飯卻總是特 別好吃爽口。這就是國家稻米公司壟斷市場,造成國人花高價也吃不到好米的原因了。


誠如前面說的,壟斷白米市場的獨門生意,按照常理來說肯定是賺大錢的,為何Bernas左手賺暴利、右手還跟政府拿補貼了,竟然還會虧本?錢都去哪了?

來首富在7年前配合前朝首相納吉與貪婪的羅斯瑪,強硬併吞大馬首富《糖王》郭鶴年的玻璃市糖廠和30%國家稻米公司股份,把白米及白糖的壟斷權緊緊握在手 中,逼走了郭鶴年。在這之後白米及白糖價格就不斷上漲,短短7年內,白糖已經從郭鶴年時代每公斤RM1.25飛漲至如今的RM2.95,漲幅接近兩倍。而 10公斤裝的香米也從7年前的RM20.00一路調漲至如今接近RM40.00。當然,大家還是不明白,利潤增加這麼多了,賽莫達居然還喊窮!


沙拉胡丁表示,首相敦馬早已對白米白糖市場出現的種種奇怪現象深表不滿,指示他盡快完成調查報告提呈內閣討論。沙拉胡丁一查之下,被種種腐敗濫權的貓膩激怒了。因此他已經建議首相取消國家稻米公司壟斷市場的專利權,決定開放大馬白米市場,讓各大米糧批發商自由競爭。

賽莫達看來將會失去白米市場壟斷權,財源將會被希盟政府狠狠掐斷。而接下來他的白糖市場壟斷權,還有戲嗎?


Bernas rice-import monopoly to end soon


THE monopoly of the Syed Mokhtar al-Bukhary-owned Bernas to import rice will end soon, as the reform mood sweeps through the Pakatan Harapan government.

The cabinet has agreed to terminate Syarikat Padi Beras Nasionals three to four-decade stranglehold on rice imports, Agriculture and Agro-Based Industry Minister Salahuddin Ayub was quoted as saying by Astro Awani.

Cabinet has agreed to end Bernas monopoly after hearing the arguments in support of it, the minister was quoted as saying.


All other forms of monopolies will also be reviewed to see if they should be retained or broken up, he said.

Prime Minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad also directed Salahuddin to prepare a memorandum to the cabinet on the proposed methods to break up Bernas' monopoly.

I have also instructed the ministrys secretary-general to inform all of our departments to identify several rice import models used in other countries, Salahuddin said.

A committee will also be formed to advise the government on the matter before the final memorandum on dismantling the monopoly is tabled to the cabinet.


The move to end monopolies is to avoid enriching certain crony companies, he was quoted as saying by Malay daily Berita Harian last month.
