This thing can cause liver failure.

Is this the one sold in NTUC? It looks familiar.

Oddly enough, since it did not pass Regulatory checks then the supplier must be sued to court with NTUC.

It is a good sign that sfa pick this up.

How could it be put on the shelves before the approval is given? Or the HSA doesn't check the goods before sale?

They do random sampling check. Not possible to test every batch.

Why never check and allow to sell in SG?

Why never check and allow FTs to come?
