00:05 Will China only sell Chinese rice and not import rice and local rice?
00:11 The announcement made by the Chairman of the Special Task Force for the National Cost of Living, Sai Abuhusen,
00:17 has caused a stir among the public.
00:19 The Minister of Agriculture, Mosha, issued a statement today,
00:22 telling reporters that it was Sai Abuhusen's personal opinion,
00:26 and the government has not yet made a final decision.
00:29 Mosha Abuhusen said that any announcement or regulation must be based on the 1994 Rice and Rice Control Act
00:37 and be notified by the Cabinet in advance, and only after a joint discussion can the decision be made.
00:42 The Minister of Communications and the spokesman for the United Government, Fa Mi, also came out to put out the fire.
00:46 He emphasized that the government has not made any changes to the unified rice class.
00:51 The Chinese rice is still just a suggestion, and the Cabinet has not yet approved it.
00:57 However, the Chairman of the Mahua General Assembly of the United Group of Rural Communities, Wei Jiaxiang,
01:01 reminded the government that it should make an announcement only after a decision is made,
01:08 and not after public criticism.
01:13 But the damage has already been done, and it will only make the people feel confused.
01:18 As for Sai Abuhusen, who made the announcement of the replacement of local rice and imported rice,
01:23 he admitted that his suggestion had not yet been approved by the Cabinet,
01:29 but Prime Minister Antoine has basically agreed with the suggestion of the rice and rice class,
01:34 and authorized him to announce the news.
01:37 The Cabinet will also hold a related discussion and decision next week.
