Official Sentenced To Death, China Food Safe Now?

Posted by chinaview on June 3, 2007

A hot news on Internet is China’s former head of the State Food and Drug Administration, Zheng Xiaoyu, was sentenced to death, because of “taking bribes and of dereliction of duty”.

Then, will there be less corruption officials and China’s food will be safer than before? definately NOT.

1. One death sentence won’t stop corruption.

China’s anti-corruption campaign has happend for many years. With the campaign ongoing, there’s more and more corrupt officials came out with higher amount value of bribery every day.

2. Punish official won’t make food safer.

China attract the world by it’s low price strategy. To make the price lower, many products are made in sweatshops ( stories in here , here, and here ) and labore camps ( story 1, story 2), that’s where the un-safe products are usually make in.

If the sweatshops and labore camps are exist, the products won’t be safe any way.
