Like fuel, what is in short supply domestically is edible oil. At a time when billions of dollars in edible oil were being imported from abroad, the military council gradually reduced oil imports. That’s why the price of cooking oil in the foreign market has become as high as 18,000 kyats per viss. The military council is selling it at a reference price of 6,000 kyats, but it is not easy to buy it, so we have to rush to buy oil. However, it is not enough to get one bottle of water per household. You can no longer buy oil even in big supermarkets.
Now, the military council is going to issue permission books for the purchase of cooking oil. I will be able to buy oil from that book. That system was an old system before 1988, and the military council has now revived that system. From the time of the military council, it has been drawn back about 30 years.
