LAHORE
Malaysian High Commissioner Dr Hasrul Sani Mujtabar has said that
Malaysia and Pakistan are potential markets and there is a lot of scope to
enhance two-way trade.He was talking to the LCCI Senior Vice President
Almas Hyder and Vice President Nasir Saeed here at the Lahore Chamber
of Commerce & Industry. Former LCCI office-bearers and Executive
Committee Members were also present on the occasion.

The High Commissioner urged Pakistani businessmen to be more

aggressive in terms of business activities in Malaysia to compete with other
competitive markets in this era of globalization. He advised the Pakistani
business community to actively participate in international conventions
scheduled to be held in Malaysia in forthcoming months.

"Pakistan is a very potential market," the High Commissioner said, adding that doing business in
country like Pakistan is always very profitable. LCCI Senior Vice President Almas Hyder said
that Pakistan and Malaysia are members of OIC and the Commonwealth. Both countries have
been maintaining excellent diplomatic relations with each other since 1957. He said that
Malaysia has attained remarkable growth in almost all fields of life and has become a role model
for many Islamic countries to follow.
Almas Hyder said that Malaysia has set a unique
benchmark by way of successfully launching its own
model of modernization with indigenization. He said
that technological base of Malaysia is strong which
was resulted due to enhancing the quality of
technical
and
vocational
education.
We must avail the opportunities of knowledge
sharing and streamlining our education system with
the help of Malaysian experts, the LCCI Senior
Vice
President
added.
He said that Malaysia and Pakistan signed a Free
Trade Agreement in January 2008 but it has yet to
prove useful to both of us. We already have the
platform which must be utilized for a win-win
situation.
Talking about declining trade trend between two
countries, Almas Hyder say that we need to take
immediate steps to regain that level of bilateral
which went as high as dollar 2.97 billion in 2011. In
2014, the level of bilateral trade further dipped to
dollar 1.51 billion from dollar 2.12 billion in 2013.
The balance of trade has been in favour of Malaysia
and over the last five years this gap is constantly
closing.
He said that main reason of this fall was drastic decrease in import of palm oil from Malaysia
which used to be around dollar 2.12 billion in 2011 and by 2014 it contracted to dollar half a
billion.
He said that Pakistans exports to Malaysia have been ranging in between dollar 200-240 million
during 2011 to 2014. There must be some advantage given to Pakistan of the said FTA. He said
that Pakistan produces good quality and affordable agricultural products. For example Pakistani
rice, oranges and mangoes are in great demand in Malaysian markets.

CM meets Paswan, seeks enhanced rice quota

February 12 2016

Bhubaneswar: Chief
Minister
Naveen
Patnaik Thursday
urged the Union
minister
for
consumer
affairs,
food and public
distribution, Ram
Vilas Paswan, to
enhance allocation
of rice quota to the
state.Patnaik
pointed out that
most people in
Orissa prefer rice as
their staple diet and
the ratio of rice to
wheat
in
the
National
Food
Security
Act
(NFSA) beneficiary
list came to 85.82:
14.18.
However, the Centre is allocating foodgrain in the ratio of 78.83:21.17 for rice and wheat since
the implementation of NFSA in November 2015, he said.The state has, as a result, consumed
27,904 MT of rice more than the allocation by the Centre till January 2016, Patnaik said. In
February, the state will consume 13,139 MT of rice more than the central allocation, he
said.Therefore, the earlier ratio of requirement for rice and wheat 85.82:14.18 may be approved
by Union government and the shortfall of allocation for rice in the last four months since
November may be released, the Chief Minister said.
At the same time, the surplus allocation for wheat may be withdrawn, he said.Patnaik also
raised the problem faced because of the reduction of weight of gunny bags from 665 grams to
580 grams because of which the Food Corporation of India (FCI) is rejecting the rice packed in
the gunny bags. This is consequently leading to problems for the state. The Chief Minister urged
Paswan to direct FCI to receive rice packed in the new gunny bag, which was specified by the
Directorate General of Supplies and Disposals (DGS&D).The state government also requested
the Centre to allocate subsidised rice for SC, ST students in different government-run residential
schools.

At present, the Centre is providing rice for only 70,000 students. We demanded that subsidised
rice be provided for all the 4.8 lakh students in state, food supply and consumer welfare
minister Sanjay Dasburma said after the meeting.Paswan said the Centre would look into the
states demand of allocation of rice and wheat in the ratio of 85.82:14.18. As other states are
also making similar demands, a committee headed by the FCI chairman has been constituted to
resolve the issue, he said.The Union minister also assured the state government that he would
look into the problem the state is facing because of the change in the weight of gunny bags. PNN

Rice group taking role in China deal

By Scott Morris
This article was published February 11, 2016 at 2:10 a.m.
JONESBORO -- A USA Rice Federation official said Wednesday that the trade group is trying
to help U.S. officials take the last steps necessary to open China to U.S. rice shipments.Robert
Cummings, USA Rice's chief operating officer, said the group was "pretty sure" the U.S. and
China have reached what he called a "technical agreement" to allow U.S. producers access to the
Chinese market."We need to make the jump from a technical agreement to a political decision in
China that they are ready to import U.S. rice," Cummings said at the 22nd Agribusiness
Conference at Arkansas State University.
USA Rice announced last month that the U.S. Department of Agriculture and China had reached
an agreement on so-called phytosanitary measures, which require U.S. mills to meet certain pestcontrol and other health standards. The USDA later issued a statement saying that the
negotiations were in a "last phase" and that no agreement had been signed.Until the agreement is
signed, China will not accept U.S. rice. Industry officials have said that affluent Chinese want to
buy high-quality U.S. rice in grocery-store ready packages.
Cummings said in an interview that he didn't know what was delaying the final agreement. He
said representatives of his trade group had met with USDA officials as recently as Tuesday in an
effort to work out any remaining kinks."What we're asking the administration is, 'What is the
game plan for that?'" he said. "How do we go from a technical agreement to implementation?"
Cummings told the conference that the USDA would begin inspecting mills that have indicated a
willingness to comply with the Chinese standards later this month. He said the USDA would
send the results of its inspections to China and that China might then perform its own reviews.He
said the fact that USDA was proceeding with its inspections made him optimistic the agreement
could be finalized in the near future.Cummings said that China, with a population of 1.37 billion
people, imports between 2.5 million and 5.5 million tons of rice annually. He did not offer an
estimate of how much rice China might buy from the U.S., but Arkansas rice industry officials
have indicated that bulk shipments aren't likely anytime soon.

China, which is both the top producer and importer of rice, is the leading importer of all U.S.
agricultural commodities, said David Schweikhardt, a Michigan State University economist. U.S.
agricultural exports to China total $28 billion annually, he said, with Canada coming in second
on the list at $22 billion annually.
Schweikhardt said the proposed Trans-Pacific Partnership between the United States and eleven
Pacific Rim countries was expected to increase U.S. agricultural exports by 5 percent by 2025.
Agricultural imports to the United States, by contrast, are expected to increase by 2 percent over
the same period if the agreement is adopted, he said.Schweikhardt said it was unlikely Congress
would vote on the trade deal negotiated by the Obama administration until after a new president
takes office in 2017. China is not a partner in the trade pact.He said many sitting members of
Congress have never voted on a trade deal, which he said created a "huge element of uncertainty"
for the agreement.

Rice Federation Raises Alarm about Vietnams FTA with

EU
Khmer Times/May Kunmakara
Wednesday, 10 February 2016

The Cambodia Rice Federation yesterday raised fresh concerns about the EU-Vietnam Free
Trade Agreement (FTA), after an online rice-industry portal said the deal will scrap import
duties on about 80,000 tons of rice from Vietnam per year and that this could start this
year.Agreement on the FTA was reached last month, according to Thai-based Oryza, an online
rice industry portal, which added that the FTA would take effect as soon as it was ratified by the
European Union council and the EU parliament.
Once it is ratified, the EU will allow about 80,000 tons of rice imports annually from Vietnam,
including 20,000 tons of husked rice and 30,000 tons of fragrant rice, with no import tariffs.
Tariffs on other rice products will gradually be lifted over the next five years, according to
Oryza. CRF vice president Hun Lak said the FTA could hinder the growth of Cambodias milled
rice exports to EU this year. Mr. Lak added, however, that his federation had set up five working
groups to expand domestic capacity and find ways to maintain competitiveness in the global
market.
Of course, it definitely affects us because Vietnam also produces rice like us, while its
production costs are lower so competition will be tougher, said Mr. Lak, who is also a
managing director of milled-rice exporter Mekong Oryza Trading.
Mr. Lak said that the first working group focuses on reducing production costs and the second
aims to increase yields from their current average of 2.8 tons to 3.2 tons per hectare (about half
the average yield in Vietnam). The third working group focuses on improving irrigation systems,
the forth on ensuring millers and exporters have enough capital to buy paddy during the harvest
season, and the fifth on expanding rice silos and warehouses, Mr. Lak said.
The EU accounts for around 40 percent of Cambodias total rice exports. It is the biggest
market for us so it really requires us to think deeply about this issue, Mr. Lak said, referring to
the FTA with Vietnam.
Cambodia has quota- and tariff-free access to the EU under its everything but arms program,
which aims to boost trade from less developed countries. If Vietnam gets similar benefits under
its FTA, Cambodia will face tougher competition from for a share of the market, Cambodian
exporters of agriculture and manufactured products have said.
Amru Rice (Cambodia) president Song Saran warned last year that Cambodian exporters will
find it very difficult to compete with their Vietnamese competitors because the country is one of
the worlds top exporters of milled rice. Mr. Saran said that Vietnamese exporters can produce
and export rice at prices below what Cambodian exporters charge and, as a result, Cambodia will
lose market share. Mr. Lak said that Cambodia exports four kinds of milled rice to the EU:
organic, parboiled, fragrant and white rice. He said organic, parboiled and fragrant rice will
remain
competitive,
but
white
rice
was
a
concern.
Only a few countries can produce parboiled, fragrant and organic rice, and they cannot
compare with [the quality of our rice]. Our concern is the affect [of the FRA] to our white rice
exports, Mr. Lak said.
Last year, Cambodia exported 538,396 tons of milled rice, up almost 40 percent over 2014,
according to official figures.
State panel clears rice scheme of damages
11 Feb 2016 at 03:59
Yingluck Shinawatra's Facebook account has been packed in recent weeks with photos of her
with supporters, such as these women presenting her with flowers earlier this week in Chiang
Mai.
A rice-pledging scheme investigation panel seeking financial compensation from ex-premier

Yingluck Shinawatra has concluded the programme did not cause damage to the state.However,
the committee found Ms Yingluck committed dereliction of duty.A Finance Ministry committee
chaired by Jirachai Moontongroy began the investigation under an administrative order in April
last year. Mr Jirachai, a deputy permanent secretary to the Prime Minister's Office, said
Wednesday the probe looked into two issues: Ms Yingluck's role in overseeing and monitoring
her government's rice-pledging scheme; and the earlier estimated loss of 518 billion baht which
was calculated by the Finance Ministry sub-committee overseeing the scheme's accounting.
Mr Jirachai said the panel agreed with the National Anti-Corruption Commission's findings that
Ms Yingluck was negligent in failing to stop corruption in the rice scheme. However, he said the
committee did not regard the rice-pledging price at 15,000 baht a tonne under the scheme, which
was much higher than market price of around 9,000 baht at the time, as damaging to the
country.This is because the rice price margin was considered beneficial to farmers and, in
implementing the scheme, state officials were also considered to be performing their duty and
following government policy.Mr Jirachai also said his panel disagreed with the ministry subcommittee which added interest to the losses incurred by the rice scheme because it was not a

programme designed for commercial purposes."We do not consider the scheme as being for
commercial purposes but state administration for the people's benefit so it is not considered as
damaging [to the state]," he said.
He declined to state whether his panel would propose an estimated loss amount to be sought
from Ms Yingluck, saying the conclusions drawn by his committee would be sent to Finance
Minister Apisak Tantivorawong and Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha
El Nino leads to global rice shortfall

Nguyn Huyn
HA NOI (VNS) The
El Nino weather event
that began last year and
has continued into early
2016 has negatively
impacted
agricultural
production in several
countries.his has caused
a fall in rice supply and
stockpiles in many parts
of
the
world.The
unfavorable
weather
condition has forced
many countries that
traditionally import rice
such as the Philippines,
Indonesia and China to
increase
imports
to
maintain rice stockpiles
for ensuring food security.India, Thailand and Vit Nam, the three largest rice exporters in the
world, have seen a sharp fall in their rice output.
Dry conditions caused by the El Nido weather phenomenon in two consecutive years of 2014
and 2015 have severely affected India's agricultural production. The world's largest rice
exporting country's stockpile is at such a low level that the country has had to cut down its rice
export by a huge amount.
In the ASEAN bloc, the world's second and third-largest rice exporters Thailand and Vit Nam
have also suffered a reduction in their rice stockpiles. Recently, Thailand's rice stockpile fell to
13.5 million tonnes, of which only seven million tonnes are good enough for consumption.
About three to four million tonnes of that stockpile can be used only for producing alcohol. The
rest cannot be used due to its poor quality.Thailand's paddy yield in the upcoming crop is
expected to fall by three to four per cent, equivalent to two to three million tonnes of rice. During
the whole of 2016, rice production in Thailand is expected to drop by four to five million tonnes,
the heaviest fall since 2000.The country will not increase its rice exports this year.

Vit Nam, the world's third-largest rice exporter after Thailand, is expected to suffer slight fall in
paddy yield and rice production this year.
The Philippines will fail to achieve its target of producing enough rice for domestic consumption
because of the El Nino effect. In the first quarter of 2016, the country's paddy yield is expected
to fall by five per cent. The rice imports of the country will be closely monitored by local traders,
because that will decide the number of countries the Philippines has to buy rice from.Last year,
Manila suggested buying additional rice from its two main suppliers, Vit Nam and Thailand,
after the country's paddy output fell.The regional rice market has seen a noticeable rise in
demand of late for imported rice. The Philippines will purchase 400,000 to 600,000 tonnes of
rice in February. In 2016, it will buy an additional 800,000 tonnes of rice to meet the domestic
demand.
Indonesia will import 800,000 tonnes of rice between February and April. The two markets will
import rice during the winter spring crop of 2015 2016 of Vit Nam. It is said that the
situation is very favourable for Vit Nam to conduct negotiations.According to experts, Vit
Nam and Thailand should coordinate in bidding to get good prices in the contract to sell rice to
the Philippines. It is possible that Thailand will not sell much rice because of its current crop
failure.Thai enterprises also appear to be discouraged after the recent bidding contracts for the
sale of rice to the Philippines and Indonesia. Most of the Thai enterprises involved in the trade
pact faced losses, because after selling the cereal, rice prices in Thailand increased sharply, while
much of the rice stockpile was not owned by the exporting enterprises, but by processing
factories.
Thai enterprises are now being more careful, following the current problems in paddy production
due to the El Nino impact. With the reduction in paddy yield, the rice price will increase after the
contracts are signed.Thailand will not take a risk by exporting a large quantity of rice to other
countries. Thailand can only give the Philippines 40 per cent of its demand and 300,000 to
400,000 tonnes of rice to the Indonesian market."Vit Nam should not conduct only a single
negotiation with Indonesia, but conduct the negotiations in several phases to get good prices.
Vit Nam would have made a lot of profit if the negotiations had been divided into several parts
for selling one million tonnes of rice to Indonesia recently," an expert said.
"The first lot can be sold at a reasonable price, but the second lot can be sold at a slightly higher
price, and the third lot should be sold at a price higher than the second lot," the expert said.
The most important thing is that China will import a lot of rice after the Lunar New Year
holiday. Once China imports rice, the world's rice market becomes much more animated. If the
cold weather continues, vegetables and paddy being cultivated in China will perish and the
demand for imported food in the country will increase sharply.Of course, a huge amount of rice
will be imported from Vit Nam."The Philippines, Indonesia and especially China will increase
rice imports and the rice price in Vit Nam will improve dramatically. If local rice enterprises
start purchasing rice, they will gain a lot. However, the problem is of capital, which, in turn,
depends a lot on banks," the expert said. VNS

New Tender for U.S. Origin Rice Follows USA Rice

Technical Seminar
By Michael Klein
BAGHDAD, IRAQ -- The Ministry of Trade of Iraq has issued a new tender here for 90,000
metric tons of rice specifically of U.S. origin. Bids are due in 10 days, and while the offer of a
tender does not guarantee a sale, the move was welcomed in the United States.
"USA Rice has been working for years to make Iraq a reliable market once again, meeting with
Iraqi officials, sponsoring trips for the Iraq Grain Board to come to the United States, holding
technical meetings, hiring a consultant on the ground there, and getting the U.S. Embassy in
Baghdad involved," explained USA Rice Chairman Dow Brantley. "The political and financial
situation there remains volatile, but this U.S.-specific tender is a sign that we are making
headway."
The new tender comes on the heels of a two-day workshop held here for staff at the Iraq
Ministries of Trade and Planning and the Iraq Grain Board, jointly organized by USA Rice, the
U.S. Embassy, the U.S. Commerce Department, and USAID.
Many technical issues were covered, including shipping bulk versus bag, broken percentages,
and other logistical challenges faced in country.
"This is exciting news, but it's important to keep things in context," said USA Rice President &
CEO Betsy Ward. "We've learned that rations for Iraqi citizens are being dialed back because of
extreme revenue shortfalls and the lack of an approved budget, but we will continue to make the
case for U.S. rice to re-establish this important market, both for us, but also for the Iraqi people."

CME Seeks Rice Industry Response to Rough Rice Futures

Contract Survey
By Peter Bachmann
CHICAGO, ILLINOIS -- The CME Group based here that oversees the trading of the Rough
Rice Futures contract has published a short, two-question survey for rice industry members to
complete by Monday, February 22.The survey is soliciting feedback on two features of the
current Rough Rice Futures contract: overnight trading hours and the delivery instrument. At
the industry's request, CME Group is looking into a move from Warehouse Receipts to Shipping

Certificates as the delivery instrument for rice purchased through the futures market.
Additionally, CME Group is looking to potentially reduce night time trading hours to provide
traders a better quality of life without dramatically affecting the trading volume.
John Owen, Louisiana rice farmer and chairman of the USA Rice Futures Contract Working
Group, said, "USA Rice's Working Group has been studying ways to increase the volume of
contracts traded and concurrently increase efficiency of the entire trading process."
Regarding the survey, Owen said, "I think that a move to Shipping Certificates is a logical step in
the right direction to update the contract and improve volume performance and convergence in
the contract between cash and futures prices."
All members of the rice industry, particularly those with interest in the rice futures market are
encouraged to complete the CME Group survey, found here.
Terry Walker Named Director of Arkansas State Plant

Board
by Arkansas Business Staff
on Thursday, Feb. 11, 2016 10:48 am

LITTLE ROCK Gov. Asa Hutchinson has
appointed Terry Walker as Director of the
Arkansas State Plant Board (ASPB), a division
of the Arkansas Agriculture Department, as of
January 16, 2016. Walker has been employed
with the ASPB for 13 years and is a graduate of
the University of Arkansas.Walker follows
previous ASPB Director Darryl Little, who
retired in January. Products and services such
as seed, feed, fertilizer, pesticides, weights and
measures, petroleum, honeybees, plant pests,
nurseries, pest control services and many others
are regulated by the ASPB.Walker said he
values the opportunity to continue building and
growing agriculture as the top industry in
Arkansas. From row crops, to livestock, to
horticultural products and fish, Arkansas
products go toward providing a safe and
economical food source for everyone. This is a
major concern for everyone associated in a
governmental and/or regulatory capacity. Not
only does agriculture provide a livelihood for
our producers but also puts food on our tables, he said.
Walker began his career in 1971 with the Rice Branch Experiment Station, now the Rice
Research and Extension Center, in Stuttgart. He then left Arkansas to work in the private
soybean research sector, serving regions of Alabama and Tennessee. He returned to Arkansas in
1984 as project leader for the Soybean and Small Grain Variety Testing at the University of
Arkansas Agronomy Department. He returned again to the private soybean industry from 1991
1996, and then on to manage the research of a local seed company, and later managed a cotton
gin. In 2002, he accepted the position as ASPB Plant Industry Division Director, and moved to
ASPB Assistant Director in 2012.
In identifying the biggest challenges ahead for the ASPB, Walker first discusses ASPB personnel
and Arkansans: Our team does an excellent job. I need to insure that they have the resources to
effectively and efficiently provide the services to our stakeholders and assist them in conducting
their businesses. Arkansas has a wealth of quality producers growing and providing excellent
food products to be used by the general population. It is imperative those producers and products
have an effective presence nationally and internationally to promote them.He names continued
partnership and consolidation with other divisions within the Arkansas Agriculture Department
as another top priority: This unified Agriculture Department should give Arkansas a more
recognizable and substantial presence on the national level when addressing issues of concern.

Rice Comment
Rice futures traded within yesterday's range before ending lower, despite a better export report this
week. USDA says 53,000 metric tons were sold to foreign buyers this week, compared with only 40,200
metric tons last week. The monthly supply/demand balance sheet was little changed, but the on-farm price was
lowered again. The average expected price for long grain is now $11.00-$11.60/cwt, and mid-south medium
grain is expected to bring $11.70-$12.30. March has been working lower and is set up for a retest of the recent
low of $10.65.
