A recent scandal has rocked Kuala Krau as the Agriculture and Food Security Ministry discovered dumped food unfit for human consumption in a dumpsite. Ex-Kuala Krau MP, Ismail Mohamed Said, publicly apologized for discarding large quantities of contaminated rice, flour, and sardines due to rancidity. The Malaysian consumer association CAP has demanded action against the former MP for his irresponsible disposal of food stocks in Temerloh, Pahang.

Ismail Mohamed Said admitted to throwing tonnes of food items, clarifying that no government funds were involved in the purchase of the kitchen goods. The dumped food, which was determined to be spoilt and unsafe for consumption by the Agriculture Ministry, has raised concerns about food safety and wastage in the region. The scandal highlights the importance of accountability and proper food management practices among public figures.

In light of the incident, the Agriculture Ministry emphasized the importance of ensuring food safety and preventing the disposal of unsafe consumables. The issue serves as a reminder for authorities to monitor and regulate food distribution to prevent similar incidents in the future, promoting transparency and accountability in the food supply chain.
