KUALA LUMPUR (Dec 19): The Malaysian Rubber Glove Manufacturers Association (Margma) expects medical rubber glove prices to rise next year following the increase in minimum wage that comes into effect Jan 1, 2020.

President Denis Low Jau Foo said costs could rise between US$0.45 to US$0.75 (US$1 = RM4.14) for every 1,000 pieces, depending on the type and production efficiency.
