Rumours have been circulating that intimated that a number of major Japanese customers had cancelled a large volume of shrimp orders on concerns over product quality. TUF president Thiraphong Chansiri called the rumours “baseless and irresponsible” and accused those who started the rumours of seeking to manipulate prices, reported the Bangkok Post.
