Liow: Health officers checking on inferior goods claim

Star: KUALA LUMPUR: The Health Ministry is looking into allegations of inferior quality products sold at the Kedai Rakyat 1Malaysia (KR1M).
Minister Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai said health officers have taken 27 samples of products that have been in dispute including the 1Malaysia brand of fresh milk.
He said his officers would also look into the most recent claim by the Opposition that baby formula sold at KR1M contravened limits set by the Food Regulations Act 1985.
"We will definitely move in. Just wait for the report," he told reporters after launching a new school block of SJKC Serdang Baru 1 here.
On Monday, Petaling Jaya Utara MP Tony Pua claimed that the 1Malaysia Growing Up Milk' had eight times the permitted amount of Vitamin A and that it lacked key nutrients.
Before this, Pua claimed that the 1Malaysia fresh milk was contaminated with E coli bacteria as shown in a laboratory test.
