Natural rubber prices ‘not in line with prevailing factors’
MONDAY, AUGUST 28, 2017
A meeting between the International Tripartite Rubber Council and the International Rubber Consortium concluded that natural rubber prices are not reflective of the economic fundamentals affecting it.
PRIME MINISTER Prayut Chan-o-cha has instructed government agencies to expedite their purchase of natural rubber in the local market as part of a bid to boost domestic demand and help prop up falling prices, a government spokesman said yesterday.
