The Commerce Ministry has extended price controls on five products comprising hygienic face masks, synthetic fibres for face mask production, alcohol gel, paper for recycling, and chicken for another year.
A meeting of the Central Committee on the Prices of Goods and Services, chaired by Commerce Minister Jurin Laksanawisit, yesterday agreed to place a total of 56 items on the price control list, 51 of which are products, including the five products accorded an extension. The five other items on the list are services. The list would later be put forward for cabinet approval.
