Premixed coffee seized in raids
KOTA KINABALU: The Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Ministry has crippled an operation distributing fake premixed instant coffee. The ministry’s enforcement chief Suhaimi Mat Sari said nearly 40,000 sachets bearing imitations of the popular Tongkat Ali with Ginseng by CNI Global (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd were seized from several premises here on Friday. He said samples of the premixed coffee with a value of nearly RM60,000 would be sent to the Chemistry Department for analysis. “We believe this operation has been going on in Sabah for six months,” Suhaimi said, adding that the fake products are mainly being sold in coffee shops.
