It is good to see that Indonesia doesnt import any rice since 2020 and also until this November 2021. We only import special rice needed by special restaurants like Biryani and Japanese rice. Even small scale rice export do take place this year.
While for sugar, Indonesia is not yet self sufficient and still needs to get it from India. But as UAE has committed to invest in our sugar industry and ready to disburse 2 billion USD, so possibly we are going to be self sufficient as well in the future for our domestic sugar consumption.
Sugar industry is notoriously tough to make a profit at. Sugar Mills in Bangladesh are always losing money and some of them were shut down.
Please refrain from posting this, I just had my lunch.
I was gonna say the same thing. I mean we have poor people in Bangladesh too, but they would not stoop this low. Sanghi caste system is to blame for this subhuman condition.
