India’s push for self-reliance in edible oils not a threat, says Malaysia
Malaysia does not see India’s ambitious push for self-reliance in edible oils through the National Mission on Edible Oils – Oil Palm (NMEO-OP) as a threat but as a strategic opportunity. The Malaysian Palm Oil Council (MPOC) has welcomed the initiative as a forward-looking step to boost India’s edible oil security, while reaffirming the role of Malaysia, the world’s second-largest producer of palm oil, as a key and long-term supplier.
