I would like to confirm that products associated with my signature have been cleared by the Taiwanese FDA this week, as we were confident from the start. as all products do not contain additives, or artificial colouring at all.

The DEHP is a plasticisers used in medical industry highly toxic, which has been used as a emulsifier cloudy agent in beverages and foods.This would also effect brands made in Singapore, if they have imported ingredients from the major supplier involved, who sells to more than 200 manufacturing brands and private brands included.

If you suspect any product that is not telling the truth when you read the labels, please report it for investigation, as this is a serious breach of safety and responsibility. All products should carry importers name and address on the products.

I'm a little concerned that this is very serious and may effect more than 200 manufacturers of brands according to Taiwan newspapers, people certainly should be aware, that Singapore manufacturers may also unknowingly be using this chemical, in their products, so it's not only the Taiwanese products that need testing, but all that import from any of the 200 companies in Taiwan, that the substance has been sold to for beverages like bubble tea, jelly's, jams, and other textures of a jellied nature.

We have been contacted literally by hundreds of customers at the expo and by phone so it's not really about us anymore, but about the extent of contamination in Singapore. Hopefully it appears to be minimal though people that are importing need to volunteer to have their products tested, otherwise AVA, cannot cope as they do not have the resources for checking everyone though i believe they have been contacted with a list of suspects.

I cannot believe that the culprit only gets 6 months jail, for knowingly using this stuff, to save on costs though the case isn't over yet.

relentless, man, relentless!

Yes I know you are!
