Recent fish scare and cover up
-
Since oil price had gone down so much....Why is our electricity tariff still hanging so high..?
I suggest that PowerGrid should consider Escolar fish oil as an alternative source for generating electricity. Or otherwise, we peasants will forever have to suffer from paying high electricity tarrif.

Oilfish / Butterfish is safe for consumption la
Just that you have to prepare it properly
In Europe it is a very popular smoked fish
Taste fantastic after you smoke it or grill it -

Puffer fish also safe for consumption, provided you know how to prepare it properly. In Japan it's a delicacy.Originally posted by elindra:Oilfish / Butterfish is safe for consumption la

But the issue here isn't about whether it's safe for consumption or not, the issue is that someone was poisoned in HK and AVA came up to inform us that we don't have any of this fish here. Subsequently the next day, they tell us that the fish is available here. -

Anyway, did they say for sale or not because Singapore processes alot of Oilfish before they are resold to other parts of the world but locally you virtually don't see any for sale -
No. Only 80% is for exports throughout the world. That leaves 20% in Singapore. So where does these 20% go?Originally posted by elindra:Oh. Didn't read that part

Just because they have contaminated fish in Java does not mean fish in Singapore is contaminated.
Last December (2005), BPOM performed a laboratorium test of 161 samples of sea products (including fish, squid, shrimp, oyster, dried salted fish / squid), tofu, and wet noodles from 6 cities at Lampung, South Sumatra. The test showed 64 samples were found positive containing formalin.
The policy was a follow-up measure after indications that numerous fish products contain formalin. In a number of places in Central Java, such as Kendal and Batang regencies, there have been reports of deaths from consuming fish containing formalin, a chemical substance commonly used to preserve corpses.

Now I know why you have a morbid fear of dogs...Don't worry, I don't chase cats and you can continue sticking your face up the Indonesian pussies -
Only Java?
You are really of low intellect, don't you know Singapore imports almost all of its food? How would one know if some of these fishes imported to us were contaminated with formalin?
You have a very low level of understanding and analysis.
You definitely have cognitive dissonance disorder. -
Credibility???Originally posted by R3SsH|n:hanor...i was wondering too...
first they tell us it is not sold here in singapore...
then they say have....
how credible really is our government organisation?
Take the recent hike in GST issue........three big heads came out with different and new things each time in different occasions, as compared to the very first announcement of GST by LHL for helping the lower income earners with hike for GST.

Now then they respond, as usual push all the blame to retailers.
288 cases of sold food products that did not comply with labeling requirements in 2006
By Julia Ng, Channel NewsAsia | Posted: 30 January 2007 2054 hrs
SINGAPORE: The Consumers Association of Singapore is advising consumers to watch what you eat, literally.
Last year, there were 288 cases of food labeling infringements, according to figures from the Agri-Food and Veterinary Authority.
This is an increase of 33 percent over the previous year.
CASE says it receives 3 to 5 complaints every year from consumers who believe they're not getting what they paid for.
Most of the complaints were about hawkers who sold thawed frozen pork as fresh meat.
The Agri-Food and Veterinary Authority, which conducts regular surveillance at retail outlets, says label infringements are mostly found on pre-packed processed food sold in retail outlets.
The offenders are mostly importers and retailers.
They were fined between $300 and $1,000.
"Usually the labeling infringement comprises the country of origin which is not mentioned in the label, or it has misleading information, or health claims. These are not allowed in food labels. eg the label may reduce the cholesterol level, or claims that doctors strongly recommend this product," said Ong Swee Seng, Head, Pre-Marketing Surveillance, Agri-Food and Veterinary Authority. - CNA /dt
