Terengganu to introduce law on swiftlet farming
KUALA TERENGGANU: Operators of swiftlet farming in Terengganu will be required to register their bird-houses with the Veterinary Service Department under a new law to be introduced soon.
State veterinary director, Dr Azizol Mohd Sharom, said a workshop was being held to review guidelines on swiftlet farming which had been introduced by the cabinet with a view of adapting them to the state's needs.
The guidelines issued by the cabinet were too general and they would be modified to meet local condition, he told Bernama here on Monday.
He said the three-day workshop, which began Monday, was attended by about 100 participants, comprising officials from the Health Department, the National Park and Wildlife Department, the local authorities and representatives from the swiftlet farmers association.
Dr Azizol said the department would also introduce a model swiftlet-breeding house that would be cheaper.
A model of the bird-house, costing about RM28,000, has been built at the Jerangau Veterinary Center in Dungun, he added. - Bernama
