Will Imported Fruit Tax Boost Malaysia’s Local Produce?

The government’s decision to expand the Sales and Service Tax (SST) to imported fruits is seen as a move to support local farmers and increase the consumption of locally grown produce. However, Malaysia’s growing reliance on fruit imports, including varieties that are also grown locally, remains a concern.

With challenges such as land scarcity, ageing farming population, and climate change holding back domestic production, will this move make fruit, a key component of a healthy diet, more expensive for consumers without meaningfully strengthening the local fruit industry or advancing public health goals?

On 23–24 April 2025, our researcher @anis94 attended the Sustainable Agriculture and Food Systems Workshop at the ASEAN Secretariat in Jakarta, Indonesia, jointly hosted by the Australian and Indonesian governments.

The workshop, attended by representatives from all ASEAN countries, highlighted the importance of building agriculture systems that are economically viable, socially inclusive, and environmentally sustainable.

During the trip, @anis94 also visited an inspiring urban farm in Depok, supported by Rikolto Indonesia. The farm promotes a circular agriculture model and is managed by a team that is 72% women, with active involvement from local children and teenagers.

Excited to introduce DARP, Data Analytics Readiness Path.

I had this idea a few months ago of building a self-assessment tool to help beginners in data analytics aspiring data analysts evaluate their current skills, resources, motivation, and readiness for a career in data analytics.

The objective of DARP is to identify knowledge gaps and match them with available resources, enabling users to prioritise learning efforts within a specific timeline.

DARP has two levels, where Level 1 focuses on the non-technical areas and Level 2 focuses on the technical knowledge.

Feel free to take the assessment for FREE.
