Deputy minister accuses palm oil critics of 'shifting goal post'
PARLIAMENT | Plantation Industries and Commodities Deputy Minister Willie Mongin has accused critics of the country’s palm oil sector of "shifting the goal post" and making it impossible for stakeholders to comply with export regulations. 

He said the ministry had over the years carried out various initiatives to deflect criticisms from the US and European Union (EU) but new issues kept on emerging, the latest being claims of forced labour used to impose export sanctions against Malaysian palm oil.
