Raising flour's price

The Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries said today that they will raise price of imported flour from April, 2008. This raising is caused by change of flour's international price. Increasing of flour price is estimated 30% and it will cause of rising price of bread, noodles and so on.

I was pondered about the connection with international society.What do you think about this article?
