Chinese Commerce Minister on Rise in Food Price
Pyongyang, May 27 (KCNA) -- The Chinese minister of Commerce referred to the rise in food price, speaking at the recent trade ministers' meeting of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation.

He said that the radical rise in food price worldwide in recent years is mainly due to the overproduction of biological energy and unreasonable currency policies in some countries.

APEC should naturally solve this fundamental problem essential for ensuring food security, he said.
