AMMAN — President of the Jordan Chamber of Commerce (JCC), Khalil Al-Haj Tawfiq, confirmed on Saturday that the price of Indian rice in the local market will not be affected by India’s decision banning its export. He added that the export ban decision relates to a specific type of rice that Africa primarily relies on, while Jordan’s share of this type in the local market is negligible. اضافة اعلان
