MCA president Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong revealed on Thursday dubious awards of direct contracts for paddy related subsidies and imports worth RM1.4 bil by a senior minister.

Dr Wee raised the issue up when debating the Budget 2020, claiming that Agriculture and Agro-based Industry Minister Datuk Seri Salahuddin Ayub had recently sought to award a contract worth RM1.4bil to the National Farmers Organisation (Nafas).
