Authorities in Thailand are cracking down on the hoarding of frozen pork meat amid shortages that have helped trigger the doubling of prices.

Over the past week, Thai police have raided two cold-storage facilities, in Songkhla and Chanthaburi provinces, each holding more than 200,000 kilograms of pork, the government said. Another warehouse near Bangkok was also found to be hoarding more than 5,000 kilogram of meat.

The crackdown comes as the government tries to cool rising prices on key staples such as pork and poultry, and as opposition parties put pressure on Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-Ocha by bringing a censure motion against him, claiming that he has failed to tackle the pandemic, high inflation and other economic issues.
