    I don't think rice supply is deceasing it's price is only increasing. Same for about 90% of all products.

    If nfa is held by the government and nfa has nearly monopolized the rice trade then the government will get filthy rich again

    partly, and also they can shut down the media companies, arrest the employees etc if they don't like what's being said.

    well, it depends on currency most of the time, what's cheap and what's not, I've been hearing mfrom my friends in UH-MEHR-IH-KUH that rice is getting expensive also...


    Coincidence? I THINK SO

    my parents still buy jasmine rice over here though...
