Improving Food Safety, One Event at a Time
"Food safety concerns the health of everyone, and is one of the top concerns of the people. More targeted, effective and practical measures must be taken to address issues that worry the people the most, such as pesticide residues on fruits, vegetables, and crops, adulterated food, and sanitary conditions of kitchens. Standards in the food industry is the fundamental framework for food safety. The establishment and improvement of a standard system, is essential to bring China’s standards in line with the international standards as soon as possible. Supervision must be strengthened over every phase of food production, circulation and consumption, and social forces should be encouraged to take part in the supervision."
Chinese Vice Premier Han Zheng
Head of the National Food Safety Commission, State Council, P.R.C.
