Sabah aims to increase supply of pork with more import licences

KOTA KINABALU: Sabah has approved eight applications to import pork products to supplement the state's domestic pork supply, which has been severely affected by African Swine Fever (ASF) outbreaks.

Deputy Chief Minister Datuk Seri Dr Jeffrey Kitingan, who is also Sabah Agriculture and Fisheries Minister, said the import and export licence applications were submitted to the import and export licensing committee under the Sabah Veterinary Services Department (DVS).
