Goods destroyed

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

Camcontrol destroys more than 60 tonnes of sub-standard goods

Camcontrol officials have destroyed more than 63 tonnes of sub-standard goods this year.

Mak Pichrith, director-general of Camcontrol, on Monday said the goods included sub-standard spices, meats, desserts, pickles, vegetables, fruits and beverages confiscated along the borders and throughout the country.

“We confiscated goods that meet requirements set by the law. We then destroyed the goods,” Mr Pichrith said. “We inspected markets and shops where goods were sold and we also provided information to buyers and sellers.”

“Some buyers and sellers were concerned about chemicals in food,” he added. “Some just didn’t know that their products contained prohibited chemicals.”

Mr Pichrith added that 499 petrol stations and depots were also checked and found that 281 stations had cheated customers by having sold low quality fuel and fraudulent quantity.

He noted that Camcontrol had also cracked down on 22 palm sugar production facilities for mixing white sugar with banned chemicals to make it seem like brown sugar.

Va Vatana, a spice vendor in Phnom Penh’s Kandal Market, yesterday said Camcontrol should continue to crack down on sub-standard goods.

“It is good to prevent chemical-tainted goods from entering the market,” Ms Vatana said. “Even sellers sometimes cannot tell which vegetables or goods contain banned substances.”

“We buy goods from others to resell,” she added. “Sometimes we cannot tell by just looking at the goods. There need to be proper inspections”




I'm just guessing, but I thought those packages would be opened ,, for inspection ??

Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.
