KUALA LUMPUR — Malaysia’s Deputy Prime Minister Fadillah Yusof on Thursday said the European Union’s Deforestation Regulation was biased against small-scale producers of palm oil in Malaysia and called on the EU to end its “discrimination” against them.
“Small farmers depend on the export of palm oil, rubber, and other agricultural commodities to support their families,” Fadillah said in a statement released Thursday in support of a group representing such farmers, which handed a petition to the Delegation of the EU to Malaysia a day earlier.
