The market showed increase in prices of white pepper and black pepper except in Malaysia. Price increase was more dominated by black pepper than white pepper. The price increase in Indonesia was assumed due to the declining stock of pepper considering it had passed the harvest season. Pepper prices in Viet Nam were relatively stable except for the price of white pepper in Viet Nam which increased from VND 87,500 to VND 92,500 per Kg.
