World's leading exporter of dairy products, publicly apologized on Monday for a milk powder contamination scare
Khi LỢI NHUẬN là mục tiêu chủ đích, thì lòng NHÂN chẳng còn! vi phú bất nhân! Hãy nhìn lại hành xử của các đại công ty dầu hỏa, dược phẩm của Âu Mỹ! Điển hình là Mosanto đã gây ra bao nhiêu độc hại trong sản phẩm của nó, mà hôm nay người dân Âu Châu đang tẩy chay! Hay qua sự kiện Snowden, thì các công ty dịch vụ điện toán cũng vì lợi nhuận làm hại đời sống người tiêu dùng toa rập trộm cắp thông tin cá nhân đem trao bán đổi trác với nhà nước và các công ty tiếp thị và tình báo khác!
Vừa đây, công ty thực phẩm sữa trẻ em "nổi tiếng" của New Zealand đã bị phát hiện nhiễm trùng! Việt Nam, Tầu, Nga đã ra lệnh cấm nhập!
Chúng ta còn nhớ vụ "sữa bột cho trẻ em làm tại Tầu bị chất chì" không? Có ai biết được rằng nó là công ty của Newzealand được đặt hàng chế tạo tại Tầu theo "công thức của các đại chủ ông New Zealand!
Một số thực phẩm nhập vào siêu thị Coles Myer của Úc từ Tầu cũng bị nhiễm độc!
Báo chí "Việt kiều" nhảy đong đỏng chỉ tay mắng Trung Quốc! Nhưng người bản sứ Úc thông minh hơn và công tâm hơn một chút đã mở cuộc điều tra chất vấn trách nhiệm ngay các ông nhà chức trách NHẬP KHẨU và KIỂM PHẨM của bộ Y Tế Lương Thực và chính công ty Coles Myer trước! Sau đó chất vấn trách nhiệm các Ông chủ Úc, Mỹ, Tân Tây Lan có vốn đầu tư cao và đặt hàng tại Tầu. Cuối cùng mới điều tra phóng sự trình độ "phương pháp" và cung cách sản xuất thiếu vệ sinh của Tầu!
Đám tập đoàn chủ nhân tư bản Úc thừa biết và đồng tình làm ngơ phương cách sản xuất thấp kém của Tầu vì NÓ RẺ và LỢI NHUẬN CAO!
Chứ bọn chúng là CHỦ NHÂN ĐẦU TƯ ĐẶT HÀNG, thường là với cổ phần cao nhất, bọn chúng có quyền lực, nếu muốn, đòi hỏi phẩm chất cao hơn, và có trách nhiệm, nếu trọng sinh mạng con người, kiểm tra trước khi nhập lại vào Úc.
TRÊN DANH NGHĨA, nó là sản phẩm làm tại Trung Quốc, nhưng vốn và quyền chủ nhân cũng như lợi nhuận thật sự là của các ông tập đoàn tư bản đầu tư!
Khi căn bệnh chủ nghĩa tôn giáo và quốc gia tổ cò nó ăn vào não, người ta mất lý trí sáng suốt và lòng công tâm bình đẳng. Người TỐT, KẺ XẤU giống như thiên chúa Alah, ở khắp mọi nơi, và lòng THAM HÁM LỢI NHUẬN CAO nó không có biên giới chủng tộc quốc gia hay tôn giáo!
Các giáo sĩ lạm dụng tình dục hủy hại thiếu nhi, tòa thánh dối trá bao che, nhà nước à ơi lấy lệ..Các giáo hội khai gian "lậu thuế" nuôi dưỡng ngân hàng, chẳng khác gì bọn tài phiệt ngân hàng đời thường (mặc dù tự bản chất, thuế là trò gian lận của Nhà nước, trốn thuế là một điều tốt, nếu đó là hành động đi từ sự hiểu biết tính gian lận của Nhà nước)
Tầu cũng có người tốt người xấu, cũng có sản phẩm giá trị cũng như mặt hàng thấp kém tác hại như tất cả các nền kinh tế vì lợi nhuận nào khác!

A US pharmaceutical company is recalling baby formula in China amid concerns it may be contaminated with bacteria that can lead to paralysis and death.
China has ordered US pharmaceutical company Abbott to recall some products in the country over a botulism scare centred on New Zealand dairy giant Fonterra.Two batches of Abbott's baby formula "risked having been contaminated by clostridium botulinum", the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine (AQSIQ) said in a statement on Tuesday.
Fonterra botulism scare leads to import ban in China, Vietnam and Russia
New Zealand dairy giant's whey protein and milk powder banned after discovery of potentially deadly bacteria
China, Vietnam and Russia have banned the import of milk powder and whey protein from the New Zealand dairy giant Fonterra after a botulism scare.
The company warned on Saturday that a batch of whey protein produced last year contained bacteria that could lead to the illness. The ingredient was exported to factories in China, Saudi Arabia, Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia and Australia.
Chinese shops cleared hundreds of tonnes of food products from their shelves and officials in Wellington said Beijing had banned imports of all Fonterra milk powder and whey protein. They added that Moscow had banned all New Zealand dairy goods despite not receiving any of the affected products.
The US Centres for Disease Control and Prevention said botulism was a rare but serious paralytic illness which could be fatal. Symptoms included double vision, blurred vision, drooping eyelids, slurred speech, difficulty swallowing, dry mouth and muscle weakness.
The case is a blow to New Zealand, which has thrived on a reputation for high-quality food products. Dairy products account for about a quarter of its exports and the industry is worth £6.1bn. Fonterra is the world's fourth-largest dairy company and this year announced plans to build a new plant in China.
The scare is likely to cause particular concern in China, where consumers have increasingly turned to foreign products after numerous food scandals involving domestic goods.
Imported dairy goods are particularly popular because of the 2008 milk powder case, in which at least six infants died and 300,000 were made ill by melamine-tainted formula made by Sanlu.
Chinese customs data cited by state media said milk powder imports from New Zealand jumped 34.3% in the first half of this year, compared with the same period of 2012, to reach 371,000 tonnes. The country is New Zealand's biggest trading partner.
Fonterra's chief executive, Theo Spierings, told a press conference in Beijing on Monday that products containing the whey protein sold by Coca-Cola and the Chinese firm Wahaha – one of the country's biggest food producers – were safe.
"We regret the distress and anxiety which this issue could have caused," Spierings said. "Parents have the right to know that infant nutrition and other products are safe."
Fonterra said it had received no reports of any ill health linked to consumption of the affected products.
Coca-Cola said it had used 25kg (55lb) of the tainted protein in one batch of a Minute Maid drink that was shipped to three Chinese provinces, but that its own experts and external authorities had confirmed the products were safe.
"This is due to the ultra-high-temperature manufacturing process we use, and also the low acidity, which sanitises the final product," it said.
Wahaha was recalling affected products despite finding no signs of contamination in them, said the group's chairman, Zong Qinghou.
Other affected companies in China are Shanghai Tangjiu and Dumex Baby Food. Dumex had already sold more than 400 tonnes of milk powder products made with the affected whey protein, according to state media, citing Chinese safety authorities.
The New Zealand company Nutricia and Malaysia's Danone Dumex had also recalled some batches of baby milk.
Australian officials said they had quarantined potentially affected baby milk but did not believe it had gone on sale, while Thai officials were expected to make an announcement on Monday.
John Key, the New Zealand prime minister, questioned why the company waited until Friday to alert authorities to the risk. Tests highlighted a potential problem in March.
Fonterra said a product had tested positive in spring for Clostridium – the genus of bacteria which includes Clostridium botulinum, which causes botulism – but because most Clostridium strains are harmless it had had to carry out further tests to assess whether there was a risk.
In the 2008 melamine scandal, Fonterra blew the whistle on Sanlu, its Chinese business partner, after local officials failed to alert the central government to the contamination. That case prompted many Chinese families to turn to imported milk powder despite the higher cost.
Supermarkets in countries from Australia to the UK now limit how many cans of baby formula people can buy because Chinese visitors have been purchasing so many. Visitors to Hong Kong are greeted by announcements at the airport reminding them that they may not carry more than two cans to the mainland.
Yang Jing, a father from Zhengzhou in Henan province, said that he and his wife fed their child with imported Dutch milk powder and that the scare would not deter them from buying foreign formula.
He pointed out that unlike in the Sanlu scandal – where milk producers deliberately added melamine because it boosted their results in nutritional tests – the problems appeared to have occurred by accident.
"The problem was discovered by New Zealand, not China. I think the quality checking system in western countries is better than ours," he said.
