Malaysian consumers have a role to play in the fight against inflation starting by choosing cheaper options of goods they purchase, says Economy Minister Rafizi Ramli.
He said Malaysians are partly responsible for the rise in
food prices for example with analysis of inflation data
showing that a major factor behind steeper prices was the "inelasticity of demand", a situation where consumers
continue buying the same amount of goods even as prices soar.

Pengguna perl berperanan untuk menjadikan penawaran dan permintaan terhadap barangan lebih anjal, termasuk dengan tidak membeli produk yang dijual pada harga lebih mahal berbanding sebelum ini. Menteri Ekonomi, Rafizi Ramli, berkata seandainya tidak membeli atau menggunakan produk yang menawarkan harga yang tidak berpatutan, ia akan memberi gambaran kepada peniaga dan pembekal untuk tidak sewenang-wenangnya menaikkan harga barangan.
This is good explanation - teaching people to analyze the situation on hand hence explaining why things happen they way they did. Please continue to dismantle the 'cartels' and encourage competition among businesses based on values/ quality of goods/ services. I hope such subjects are taught earlier in primary school. We need produce intelligent consumers & rakyat!
Langsung tak ada statement Yb cakap kurangkan makan ayam. Dia cadangkan untuk dalam membeli bahan bahan makanan, bijak memilih kedai/tmpt yang jual lagi murah. Cakap kurangkan makan ayam. Dia nasihatkan agar rakyat jadi pengguna yang bijak, bukan sandarkan sahaja kepada kerajaan 100%
Get rid of the AP or Approved Permit that import food and other essential goods. Company like Bernas own by Syed Mokhtar monopolise the import of rice etc and should never have been granted the AP. This type of company only increase the price of food as they are the middleman contributing very little while adding costs and making a hefty profit every year.
Sebenarnya mengawal harga dedak dan jagung . Cuba fikir harga ayam telur akan naik kalau dedak dan jagung mahal. Dan penternak akan kurangkan ternakan sebab dedak mahal dan pengeluaran telur pun akan berkurang demand banyak supply kurang harga up. Kaji balik dekat group penternak jangan salahkan pengeluar (peniaga) dan penternak sebab mereka pun cari makan bekerja.
Tabiat manusia suka makan ayam setiap hari menjadi harga ayam semakin naik. Masih ingat dulu kecil?, seminggu sekali saja baru dapat makan ayam. Sekarang budak budak berumur 8 tahun sudah mengalami kedatangan haid sebab ayam? Yang dimakan itu disuntik supaya cepat membesar untuk memenuhi permintaan yang menjadikan ayam sebagai makanan harian kita. Elok juga kita ikut nasihat YB Rafizi Ramli. Demi kesihatan seluruh rakyat Malaysia, kurangkan makan ayam.
The proposed solution is practically applicable in an area where there is a lot of suppliers in walking distance which consumers can compare prices. What about in kampung where only 1 or 2 retailers selling chicken. Consumers has no choice but to buy at these retailer at whatever price charged or buy elsewhere at slightly lower price but borne the transportation cost…RR should address this issue too.
Consumer association must play a bigger role if govt wants to address the demand side i.e. increase awareness of the competitive prices, more aggressive on dissemination of information on prices via social media, increase enforcements on price controlled items etc etc.
Improve kecekapan operasi pengeluaran supaya responsive terhadap mismatch dalam pasaran berkaitan permintaan dan bekalan dalam pasaran. kecekapan operasi logistik, simpanan stok, distribution. Kena ada consumption data sepanjang tahun untuk tengok waktu spike permintaan yang mengatasi bekalan. Predict dan come up dengan solution untuk anticipate dengan cara import atau ramp up production pre the anticipated dates. Ready stockpiles. Cari mismatch, ready and standby stock untuk absorb atau dillute kenaikan itu supaya tidak keterlaluan pada tarikh atau tempoh yang dikenalpasti berlaku secara berulang sepanjang beberapa tahun ke belakang, back to back years. Kalau perlu import ready stockpiles dan import awal.
Faham betul betul. Rafizi beritahu apa tugas pengguna. Kita kena faham Pemerintah tentu ada tugas mereka sendiri. Pengguna pun ada tugas mereka juga. Pengguna kalau sudah harga (amat) tinggi sangat, kenalah kurangkan makan ayam. Tempoh masa pendek tak makan ayam pendek saja. Sila buka minda. Jangan terikut golongan extreme suka salahkan orang saja
Rafizi sebut " by right " bukan kurang makan ayam tapi KURANGKAN Beli Ayam dekat kedai itu. Beli dekat kedai lain …. kalau dekat kedai itu tak ada demand, penjual Terpaksa turunkan harga. INI BASIC ECONOMY
Rafizi tidak ulas jika tak makan ayam…beralih kepada ikan dengan harapan beri tekanan pada demand? Harga ikan pula akan naik, daging juga akan naik sebab kategori pesaing sumber buat lauk. We better start jadikan negara ini pengeluar makanan a.s.a.p. Sebelum krisis makanan menjadi lebih teruk. Import hanya selesaikan saingan harga buat sementara. Ini pendapat aku saja. Sama saja statement dengan seblum ini……telur mahal jangan makan telur. Kisah dari kangkung sampai telur, sampai ikan, sotong. So start the programme untuk jadikan negara pertanian atau agriculture, better than other development and we suffer from pollution and banjir kilat di mana saja. Balance development is the best!
Kurangkan makan ayam ini bukan penyelsaian, kena bijak dengan tindakan. Sebab apa bekalan berkurangan, export?, sorok? Penyakit ayam? atau kekurangan pembekal, yang jelas pembekal tidak dapat bertahan kerana makanan ayam sering meningkat ini lah perlu diselsaikan dahulu iaitu membuat makanan haiwan sendiri di dalam negara. Suatu bidang yang boleh diceburi oleh kerajaan sendiri. Satu lagi bidang yang kerajaan boleh terlibat terus adalah penghasilan superfood bagi spirulina untuk makanan penternakan yang boleh membekalkan protein terus kepada manusia dan boleh dicampurkan kepada makanan haiwan untuk mengalakan pembesaran haiwan lebih cepat.
Malaysian tend to eat more meat than vegetables because meats are tastier than vegetables. In fact, a balance diet should consist of less meat, more vegetables, this way it can keep us healthier and maintain longevity. In some countries, vegetables are more expensive than meats.
Off course not everyone wants to be a full vegetarian, neither is me. It is not easy to obtain enough protein and carbohydrates from vegetables and fruits alone, these two components of food are essential for the normal function for our bodies, among others. A balance diet is just adequate for me, just not sure about others.
