KUALA TERENGGANU: Terengganu will get 180 tonnes of sugar, which is sufficient for the whole month of Ramadan, state Domestic Trade, Cooperative and Consumerism Department deputy director Abdul Ghani Harun said.

He said the sugar stock with wholesalers in Terengganu was at 132.903 tonnes currently.

“There is a balance of 142 tonnes of sugar at the factories, yet to be collected by wholesalers,” he told reporters after inspecting sugar storage at several wholesalers here recently.

He said there were 14 new retailers appointed under the consumer’s choice programme in Terengganu — four each in Kuala Terengganu and Dungun, three in Kemaman, two in Besut and one in Setiu. – Bernama
