Malaysia is ready to export more agricultural products including palm oil and tropical fruits to China, Plantation Industries and Commodities Minister Zuraida Kamaruddin said.
Zuraida said the demand for these products from China is welcome especially at a time of economic uncertainty.
According to her, the Chinese market in 2021 accounted for 12 per cent of Malaysian palm oil exports.
“China also supports and accepts the Malaysian Sustainable Palm Oil (MSPO) certification, which has enabled the palm oil industry (in China) to enhance its corporate image.
“It fulfills the corporate social responsibilities and realises China’s national green policy,” she said.
