Perak to expand onion cultivation with allocation from federal govt
GOPENG: Onion cultivation in Perak will be expanded to three other districts in the state with an additional RM1.4mil allocation by the Federal Government, says Datuk Seri Saarani Mohamad. The Perak Mentri Besar stated that the pilot project began in the Batang Padang district and would be expanded to the Kuala Kangsar, Muallim, and Perak Tengah districts. He said the state would identify the areas that meet the criteria for growing onions. 'We have begun branding them as 'Perak onions'. They are tasty and sweet,' he told reporters at the closing of The Federal Agricultural Marketing Authority (Fama) Fest 2025 at the Rural Transformation Centre here on Sunday (June 1). 'Even though onions can technically be planted anywhere, we need to find the most suitable land to get the best quality onions,' he added. Deputy Agriculture and Food Security Minister, Datuk Arthur Joseph Kurup, was also present. In his speech at the event, Arthur stated that the successful production of Perak onions was a commendable achievement, and it was the first commercially produced onions in Malaysia. He said this success is the result of a collaborative effort between the Agriculture Department and the Malaysian Agricultural Research and Development Institute (Mardi). 'The ministry has allocated an additional RM1.4mil to Perak to expand the cultivation area for the onions this year,' he said.

Elderly company director loses RM1.4mil to online trading scam
IPOH: A 75-year-old company director here lost about RM1.4mil after falling victim to an online trading scam. Perak police chief Comm Datuk Noor Hisam Nordin said the man had on April 15 received a call from an unknown woman offering him to be a business partner who buys products from foreign companies. "Having supposedly checked the status of the company, which he found to be operating since 1989, he agreed to take part. "He was asked to download a mobile app SHV Shop that sells luxurious branded items," Comm Noor Hisam said in a statement on Tuesday (May 27). "If someone wants to buy a product, the man would need to pay for it up front and he would get 30% in commission," he said, adding that his first transaction of about RM22,122 was made through a cash deposit machine to a bank account of said company. "Having received the return, he trusted the company and conducted online and over-the-counter transactions of about RM1.4mil into six different bank accounts. "After the transactions, he stopped receiving any returns and he realised he has been cheated," he added. Comm Noor Hisam said the man lodged a report on Sunday (May 25), with the case to be investigated under Section 420 of the Penal Code for cheating. "The police would like to remind the people to be careful of investment schemes that promise overly-high returns. "Also check trustworthy sources like SemakMule, Bank Negara and Securities Commission to get more information before investing in any schemes," he added.
