SHAH ALAM, 12 November 2024 – Padiberas Nasional Berhad (BERNAS) proudly upheld its tradition by joining the Agriculture, Horticulture, and Agro-Tourism (MAHA) 2024 exhibition which was held earlier this year from 11 to 22 September. BERNAS’ main objectives at the event was to educate visitors, delegates and stakeholders and create a deeper understanding on the importance of food security and how the rice industry is critical to this stability.
This year’s participation also saw BERNAS hosting engaging activities and contests with attractive prizes, adding excitement for visitors at Malaysia’s largest expo. One of the highlights was the “Teka Berat Beras” contest, where visitors answered a few simple questions and estimated the weight of rice showcased at the BERNAS booth. The grand prize—a year’s supply of premium fragrant rice—was generously sponsored by Jasmine Food Corporation Sdn Bhd. Congratulations to En. Saiful Anas Hassan from Subang Jaya (left) and Pn. Nurulamaliah Othman from Seri Kembangan (right), Selangor, who each correctly guessed the rice weight of 250 kg at the BERNAS booth.
