Malaysia has a stockpile of rice that can sustain the population for a minimum of six months, according to Minister of Agriculture and Food Security Datuk Seri Mohamad Sabu. Fish supplies are also ample, lasting up to eight months. Despite these food reserves, the government has assured the public not to panic.
Mohamad emphasized that Malaysia's readiness extends beyond food supplies. In the event of a cyberattack that disrupts communication networks, the government is prepared to physically transport food supplies directly from the farms. He noted that while current preparations are sufficient, proactive measures must be continuously implemented.
Should a cyberattack not occur, the minister expressed gratitude, stating "Alhamdulillah". However, he stressed the importance of preparing the public for potential cyber warfare in the future. This includes educating the populace on readiness for such events.
