ONION, a crucial ingredient in Malaysian staple dishes, is now selling for a record high price in the local market, worrying the Consumers' Association of Penang (CAP).

N. V. Subbarow, the coordinator of the NGO’s natural farming programmes, has revealed that onions, particularly those imported from India due to insufficient supply from local growers, have fetched an average price of RM8.50 per kg over the past week.

The item was pegged at RM6.20 per kg during the festive Christmas period due to intervention from the enforcement division of the Domestic Trade and Cost of Living Ministry.

However, the price shot up again in the open market after the festive season was over, at a feverish RM8.50 per kg, Subbarow claimed.

He said that the authorities need to find diverse sources for onions, especially with reports that India will curb exports to meet the country’s own local demand.
