- Despite being a food-crazy middle-income country, Malaysia is on the verge of a food security crisis, with an increasing number of families already struggling to put food on the table.
For those who've suffered hunger , they knew the desperation ... 🙏 Thank You So Much for these Living Angels for helping the Really Needed of Helps! 🌷🌿🌏💜🕊🇲🇾
Now this is a job worth applauding. Shining a light to the plights of the poor and the hungry. This is what should be highlighted.
And shame on people on the Parliament that keep fighting politics all of these years. Now, this is true unity, people helping each other.
It’s time Malaysians should cultivate gardening in their homes , plant their own . Government should open up Community Gardening , bit by bit the awareness of agriculture will be increasing . Blessings to these Good Samaritans ( NGO’s) but how much can they do in the future?
Kerajaan Perpaduan should be sensitive towards this issue before it gets severe.
It’s the fact , the world at soon will go through food crisis but if we give priority to agriculture at least we can survive!
I pray and hope that this will improve with a new government which must be focused on tackling this issue. It’s not something that can be resolved overnight but in proper planning, strategies and policies. Such respect to those in the NGO doing their part to help. Do post such more awareness videos and Malaysians let’s share this more. 😢
u r so left behind, mat sabu is lepasan spm only. Im not trying to downgrade him, but u need to have a reality check.
Malaysian NGOs are indeed doing a seemingly impossible yet thankless job. They deserve so much more respect than they get.
they probably voted PAS or PN for a brighter future
@@eriklee9462 it does brighter, weird isnt it.
No chicken, eat pork
LOL.
Coming from the agri sector, I just want to add that farmers had a terrible 3 year period since the pandemic.
Just as they came out of the pandemic, they faced two other challenges. Manpower and unpredictable bad weather.
Part of the problem lays in how little data is available on volume, price etc etc on a given time period.
Secondly there is very little communication let alone discussion among farmers be it small holdings or larger players.
Finally, the various farming associations like all other trade associations has active advocacy and representation component to it.
The days where government drew up a master plan to develop or fix the issue without even as much as having a dialogue with the concerned parties are over.
Instead of accounting for these white elephants and budgetary blackholes nor learning a from any of the previous failures, we went on to do more of the same except that the bill for the losses increased exponentially.
We are going to run out of money to simply throw at problems long before we run out of problems.
And the B40 and the M40 are the ones going to bear the brunt of the challenges ahead.
let alone base their action plan on some form of local academia research or study
Pegawai kerajaan tido
Thanks for the noble work helping those in need.
Actually Malaysia under the first 3 Prime Ministers emphasized agriculture and already had a good system to ensure food security... However, the 4th PM, in his zeal to project superficial development, scrapped most of the good food security projects already in place, and diverted those resources to industrialize the country... So it is inaccurate to say we had never thought about food security before.. in truth, the 4th PM sabotaged Malaysian food security with a zeal to industrialize....
we got KLCC and Menara KL though.
@@Rsyraf exactly. we got superficial "development"...
It is sad that our previous govt is not doing enough to ensure food security. Instead of supporting our farmers, we are hearing stories of farmers are being bullied and threatened by authorities.. . We see videos of these "authorities" destroying vegetables and farmers being bullied into paying these authorities. Not sure true or not but there are so many of all these stories of these farmers applying for lease approvals for decades and yet the govt still refuse to give to them approvals resulting in them having to pay so much to appease these "authorities" .. So sad.. Hope the new govt will wake up
There is a lot of that cartel. You could hear the stories from people who deal with them.
People need to act before people die of hunger in this country full of abundance. These are good people helping people down on their luck.

Previous government only focused on enlarging their belly.
We are relying too much on imports and cartels are controlling main food items like meat, rice, and eggs. Plus, the slow increase of the high cost of living and stagnant income make it worse especially for urbanites. I think we pushed for agriculture but prioritized manufacturing and natural resources (logging, monocrop, oil and gas). It is time to move to improve and highlight local agriculture, animal husbandry technology, and alternative foods.
If only Tun Mahathir didn't stop Pak Lah effort on tightening security, surely we will not have this problem now.
@@ryuisvillemaster8076 True.
Unless the price of animal feed and fertilisers that are keep on increasing are fully addressed Msia is doomed. Animal feed (20kg - fish feed) prices for example have increased from RM60 to RM76 within just 3 months. In 2000 the price was just RM30. No offence to Mat Sabu…but from the way he’s doing his job right now…it seems we are not going anywhere.
Mat Sabu should tender his resignation.
Can someone go to the village to collect food, we have lots of fruits, veggies, etc. I have lots of chilies, ladies' fingers, pumpkins etc just let them rot because nobody wants them. Go to the kampung sure you can gather huge among of food.
Please give me your address.tq
All food prices and daily needs have gone up this year.
Pak lah once priorities food and agriculture..many student enroll in UPM but after graduating they didnt want to work at farm..they want to work in office wear tie so how??
got degree so why work in a farm?
Thanks for your work that you helping to address food security and the sharing this video
My eyes tears when i see all these , can this world be a more better place to live in
talk is cheap, what have you done recently to make the world or at least your community a better place? I'm pretty sure its nothing.
Time to invest in own kebun and benih-benih.
May Allah ease and open more sources to this group of individuals to provide necessary basic amnesties to real needies...
"Malaysia is double burdened in terms of malnutrition. We have the highest number of children who are stunted. and the highest number of children who are obese." - Dr. Hartini Zainudin. So true. While many don't have enough food, I can see some of the volunteers are obese...
Rakyat malaysia puasa la.. majority gemok2.. fokus agritech plak...
yang sakit sbb terlebih makan pun ramai. dan itu yang ramai pun.
We must grow our own food. We have the capacity to grow our own food but no political will to help those farmers. Eventually all the farmers will give up and we will have to import all of our food. I am speaking through experience.
Kepada yang masih hendak bermatian-matian jatuhkan kerajaan perpaduan sekarang tonton video ini. Kamu semua ahli politik yang berhati busuk dan tidak bermoral sejak langkah sheraton boleh pergi mampus dengan jutaan ringgit yang telah kamu sakau dari negara yang sepatutnya digunakan untuk kegunaan rakyat masa susah. Bukan saja tak mampu buat kebaikan setelah rampas kuasa malah menambah lebih banyak kerosakan yang diwarisi kerajaan perpaduan sekarang. Semoga kerajaan perpaduan akan dapat menangani isu sekuriti makanan sekarang dan membawa semua yang sakau dari negara ke muka keadilan. Diharapkan tuhan akan merejam mereka seperti syaitan iblis.
Let d ppl till d empty state land. Don't charge these farmers exorbitant rental.These hard working souls would help d country' to reduce its dependency on imports . D past govts more preoccupied with corruptions than solving d country's problems!Siapa ta malu dan ta takut Allah?
Unwise suggestion... unregulated clearing of land for farming can cause erosion and landslide... let's hope what had happened recently will never happen again because of shortsighted plans like this...

Proper clearing of land,esp sandy ones
Learn from other countries that hv developed agricultural needs for society. New govt pls plan accordingly for Msia future esp to address food security issue.
Ask PMX to settle all the problem..
It doesn't include just Malaysia but the rest of this world and its going to be much worser especially in 2023 for countries that depends totally from imported goods . FODD INSECURITY IS A GLOBAL THREAT ACTUALLY.
I learn the lesson of how to survive without buying food during the MCO.Tat time was an eye opener for me.I was jobless, homeless tat time.I was taken in by Anjung Singgah.3 meals a day given.Found work in f&b w staff meals.Later was approved by YKN,given a place to stay.When i am off,take my meals at Good Samaritan NGO w free meals.
Inequality is extreme in Malaysia.
Agreed. And with poor governance, it worsens the situation.
if you really believe "Inequality is extreme in Malaysia", you really are living a very sheltered life... Try to expose yourself to global news to better understand what extreme inequality really is...
Why this “phenomena” only happens in KL not other states? I live in Terengganu & waifu is in Penang. We never experienced lacked of foods? These reports are biased. Look at the volunteers all obese. When you give out free handout off course people will keep on contacting you. In KL now so many foreigners inter-married among each others. You need more data
Exactly. States up north and east don't have such poor and undernourished people. Poverty is unheard of. A change of state government certainly will help. What say you, folks?
Food security is definitely an issue in other states as well. As mentioned by Dr Hartini, there is a "double burden" in Malaysia - we have high obesity rates AND malnutrition at the same time. Poverty and hunger exists in all parts of the country, but maybe we don't see it cos we're living in parts where food is abundant and obesity is the bigger problem?
@@TheFourth obesity is an old disease since 50 years ago too.. all because of palm oil not healthy. malnutrition i dont see it, maybe it’s foreigners children idk 🤷♂️
Good job.
Food is a basic need. If the basic necessity we can't manage, how can we expect to secure other complex things? 😢
Ask Najib & Rosmah to sell their confiscated items at home and donate to those in need
Thku to all the Angels to help the needys. Hope the new governments will c to the needs n welfare of these associations n improve the poor to the better. Malaysia will stand great, strong n better than other countries.
Now days having no of children vs your income is important
This also contribute to part of the problem
Eg l read have 6 to 8 children but income is rm1500
How is that environment to provide food .. concrete building and the like .. they need to move back to the fertile Malaysian land
Waking call. Thank you
Baik duk kampung x susah..
bravo
Wait, i’ve never knew this. Never have i imagine It’s this bad. Im still teen but i feel like i can atleast help something for a cause
Maybe too many kids.
exactly. Besides food, they should also be distributing condoms and conduct sex education for the parents... family planning is key...
Dimanakah peranan zakat pada golongan² asnaf & miskin bandar seperti ini?
zakat pun tak mampu nak tampung makanan yang cukup. ada 10k fakir dan 10k miskin lain yang perlu dibantu secara one-off. ada 5k pelajar yang perlu ditanggung setiap tahun.
Importing food, now that’s the Malaysian Way 👍🏻
IMporting food via Cartels you mean - like Rice, Oil and Sugar?
Malaysia is like the land of the sleep walkers. Most poor People dn;t know what is going on. Maybe they're just to busy working 3 jobs to care.
@@eriklee9462 or maybe they are just busy watching The Last Of Us on HBO
Good day The Star, can I ask for permission to use this TH-cam source for educational purposes as a reference video?
But the amount of food waste when it comes to buka puasa time
May allah bless all of you ❤
Indeed food security of Malaysia
needs to be top priority of DSAI unity government especially for the masses/the poor because that pleases Almighty !
Secondly global famine coming n Almighty created Malaysia an agricultural country, so....obvious
Direction !
Msia's food sec issue started when Mahathir became d PM. He cancelled most previous central gov support for small farmers to cultivate cash crops, n cheated them into planting oil palm. D result we see is d FGV scandals, unstable palm oil prices, n food sec crisis. That's why today we r seeing this video.
Every year we import around RM8bil of food, which cld hv been better used to develop food tech. Taiwan is a great example. They hv small land n earthquakes to deal with, yet their agri n food tech is probably d best in Asia. Agri policies are highly supportive of standalone farmers instead of corporations, like how Msia has all these oil palm companies.n also destroyed our primitive jungles.
Gov shd also be reducing cultivation of durian for export to especially China. Pahang has cut down so many trees, n involvement by d royal family members is not healthy at all, as land is a state controlled matter than federal.
So far, Anwar's gov doesn't seem to be placing high priority to address our food sec issues. Hopefully will change ASAP.
Many rich buddhist association offering free food islandwide in penang
All I need is bread and water and the Free Electric Band.
Tun Abdullah Badawi time did encouraged and want to bring up agriculture but unfortunately..
maybe we should give tax insentive benefit/tax deduction @ social score for some public treatment for any business/restaurant/sme/hotel/individual/ngo who do charitable food donation...inspire them to do more charity would be good initiative to start,and do data profiling for that specific purpose
the truth is we are not so great of a country if we have people who are so poor that they cant afford food .
Is education not Public?? Is she talking about an adult child at college? Or a young child she is paying for education??
Gaji x naik ,harga makanan naik ! Warga asing dijaga Syarikat dari rakyat msia! Tis wont solve the problem ,wht the core causes?
if only ngo also give item for them survive...
How i can connect with this team?
Most food was exported
Sure or not, all I see ppl in Malaysia eat and eat all the good food until so full
Current government...haiyaaaaa, who says previous government??? It is current government issue
How long,the poorer have to depend on NGO'S? where's our Government? that's the main reason, why the most people asked for EPF withdrawal,but our PM, still quiet..
as long as they can get out from poverty
Good training for preparation for war because our government doesn't think about WW3 so too the people.
Which state has a surplus food production...? That's the answer...?
Kedah is the most. But now, it's dwindling. Why do farming when sell/lease land for housing development are more convenient and proseperous for the farmers.
“””food security crisis””” aka rising prices of goods
Najib & gang always have more than enough but poor people suffering
Oil problem chicken problem bread problem oil problem and subsidy war
while on the other hand, we have so called "influencer" wasting all sort of resources for fame.
So it's proven we need a new Gov't before Msia become a 3rd world country. All the best DSAI, may God grant you and team wisdom to resolve and manage the current issues wisely. Our prayers are with all the rakyat of Msia.
It's already a 3rd world country after the theft by Najib, Rosmah, and all the others .

@@louistheroux530 I remember being taught in my economics class, that the lowest class of countries is agricultural, then followed by industrialization and finally a wealthy country is a service based economy. We know it's bull now.

@@magicalmanfromwonder That’s school and book learning for you.
*is Malaysia facing on food security when those who provide the food are ready. willing and able to supply*
Najib : but the kangkong pricee is still the same
Defence minister ex : but the LCS has an invisible paint
Rosmah : i havent go hairsaloon for 4 days
Jho Low : malaysians i want to thank you
This isnt FOOD SECURITY. This is AFFORDABILITY issue. Even if we produce 100% of our own food (not imported) not many can afford anyway. Feed costs are too expensive everywhere. Also basic economics tells us to produce what we are best at. We dont hv the most fertile land, the cheapest labour etc. Why spend resources developing an industry that isnt efficient. Why blame importing food with people not able to eat???Please be clear on this
Malaysia is a capitalist state. These people can be helped if Malaysia becomes a welfare state. Rich tycoons pour in their riches to help the poor but that will turn Malaysia into a welfare state.
Gather the poor to farm land, raise poultry, do agriculture, do food production, be productive again. The Agriculture and Food Ministry does the coordination.
no need to establish Socialist-Communist policy in our economy.
Socialism is a bad idea. May I remind you which ethnic group pays the most tax in Malaysia?
Ok ok ok....how we can kaitkan dengan sciences?
Malaysia's policy has always been power and religion first..food second..
I love getting free groceries from these people. Even though i make 11k a month I will still pickup free groceries cause I can save more money
loser! this is not a joke!
Wow..thts very selfish of you, that portion can feed the truely needy ppl.
Shame on you..... depriving the needy
