Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim has instructed the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security to proactively prepare for the effects of the approaching Super El Niño. The phenomenon, predicted to impact Malaysia starting in November, poses a potential threat to the nation’s food supply. The directive calls for the urgent development of mitigation strategies to lessen the anticipated impact. Specific details of these measures have not yet been released, but the government is prioritizing food security. This action recognizes the potential for drought or extreme weather events linked to El Niño to disrupt agricultural production. The aim is to ensure a stable food supply for the country despite the challenging climate conditions.
