Singapore has lifted the suspension on the import of milk and milk
products from China, the country's Agri-Food and Veterinary Authority said in a
statement today.
The AVA says it is satisfied with the control measures in place to ensure
that milk and milk products from China are not contaminated with melamine.
"Products produced on or after today will be allowed to be imported into
Singapore," the AVA said.
Manufacturers are also required to inspect and test each batch of their raw
materials and end products to ensure that they are melamine-free, and products
must then be issued health certificates by the Chinese authorities before they
are exported to Singapore.
The import of all milk and milk products from China has been suspended in
Singapore since September 19, 2008.
