Crossy Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 My Darling watches the Farm Channel on MCOT at 5AM every day. There's an occasional segment entitled "Rubber World", unfortunately my warped (British) mind conjures up a very different image from those of trees and tappers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curious to approve a 20-year strategy (2016-2036) when it's almost 2020. Shouldn't it be approving a 16-year strategy? Notably 2016-2019 has been a failure to raise global rubber prices using many of the the same policies proposed for the future of the plan.
