GEORGE TOWN (Bernama): The government intends to create a special law to protect contributors and also recipients of the Food Bank Malaysia Programme (FBMP) by the end of next year. Such a law would, among other things, shield contributors from being sued should problems arise along the line related to the food they donated. Saifuddin, who is also Pantai Jerejak state assemblyman, said among the components of a local mould, was halal food from hotels. "So, we have to scrutinise all aspects so that all the fears are answered after the new law is tabled," he said. Earlier, Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng represented Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad in launching the programme.
