NFA: Rice supply in PH is enough amid ECQ

National Food Authority (NFA) Administrator Judy Carol Dansal assured that the rice stock will still last for 11 days and that private entrepreneurs have plenty of rice reserves.

NFA Administrator Dansal also urged traders to continue importing rice to avoid shortage and called on importers to give a fair price to help consumers affected by the ECQ. – PTV News
