RICE PRICES IN HK JOHN LUFF
There's No Cause
For Alarm, Says Government
THE Assistant Director of Commerce and Industry, (Control Division) Mr J. Cater said this morning there was no cause for alarm, when asked about the increased prices of all grades of rice in the Colony brought about by drought now hitting crops in Thailand.
The colony imports about 60 per cent of its rice from Thailand.
