rice shortage in the philippines - it sounds like a joke!

The newspapers reported of a rice shortage. I thought it was a joke. Soon after, I heard it on TV too. I guess they weren't kidding. It was a serious issue. It just sounds so crazy that a country like the Philippines would be worrying about a rice shortage.

From what I've read, the government denies that we shouldn't be affected by the Global crisis. I really have to agree with that. Yet, a tiny part of me wouldn't put it past shady businessmen to begin hoarding and create that shortage locally and make a pretty penny while at it. I hope they catch those suckers!
