CATTLE, SHEEP, AND DOT DOT DOT

Cowdy!

The last 2 weeks had been a hectic yet a learning experience for me. I suddenly found myself negotiating the sale of livestock on behalf of my uncle for Korban. Alhamdulillah, it went well as my long time buddy Syful wrapped up the deal while I myself was back in Darul Hana.

For readers out there looking for livestock be it for Korban, Aqiqah, BBQ, Golek, X mas or any other functions, we can help you with your needs. Price of cattle (Brahman and KK) ranges from RM2,500-RM2,700 depending on the weight. Goat and lamb varies from RM550-RM650. Price is inclusive of delivery for Klang Valley.

My uncle's company also cater for demand in Sarawak and Brunei. In fact, his farm in Kuching had run out of supply last week due to overwhelming demand.


I'd encourage readers to ponder on this:

Malaysia's Self Sufficiency Level (SSL) for cattle is 18% at the present moment. That means, we have to IMPORT 82% of our meat requirements! By 2010, Malaysia needs to achieve its SSL for cattle at 40%. Now you see the opportunity in this industry?

For goat/lamb, the current SSL is at 9%! Meaning we have to import 81% to supply to our Nasi Briani Kambing Gam restaurants. And,we are striving to meet our 35% SSL target by 2010.

So, while anticipating the recession or counting your days to pension, why not give this line of business a thought.

PS If you are in Putrajaya, give Nasi Briani Gam Anje in Precinct 9 a try.Mark my word, that IS the best nasi briani gam in Putrajaya.
