It seems like the hottest supply chain topic over the past couple of years has been security. Apparently it’s an important topic for the city of JOHOR BAHARU in Malaysia as well.

We have posted about the cargo theft problems that have plagued Malaysian based supply chains in the past. The Malaysian government has even hired DVD sniffing dogs to sniff out pirated DVD’s. Well, according to a report on Bernama.com, Malaysia may be facing their stiffest challenge yet; securing the chicken supply chain.

The Johor branch of the Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Ministry will place its officers at every level of the chicken supply chain to check shortages and price manipulation.

State Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Committee chairman Datuk K.S. Balakrishnan said the officers would be placed at the livetock farms, wholesalers, retail outlets and at the consumer level to solve problems that could crop up at every level.

Good grief….
