Malaysian Quarantine and Inspection Services (MAQIS) officers at the border have increased their scrutiny of food imports.
This has led to a number of consignments of meat, grain, honey and dairy being detained at Penang Port and Port Klang (North Port).
Stronger enforcement at the border is expected to continue.
