China…Got (Safe) Milk?

The Chinese food safety system is learning that lesson the hard way when contaminated milked killed four babies and endangered the lives of 53,000 more, according to the article, “UN urges China to revamp food safety after milk crisis.”

The Chinese must change their entire food safety system and introduce new amendments that will regain the trust of the Chinese people and the rest of the world. The Chinese government needs to train food companies in proper inspection of food products in the most effective manner, or the crisis will never end. Not only does it affect the domestic market, but the global market as well. “Made in China” will soon become “Made in Contamination.”

Food companies need to utilize all of its resources and ensure that workers will do their jobs properly and honestly. If not, people will start losing confidence in their government system. It is sad to hear that laziness and complete disregard for a person’s well-being cost the lives of four babies.

How is it possible that a country in today’s modern times is still not able to produce clean consumable products? The regulation in China has the government taking responsibility instead of individuals being accountable. To put it plainly, if you can do what you want and never get in trouble, would you care how strict certain rules and regulations were? I think not.
