In addition, the city will simultaneously collect and test high-consumption distributed foods for the Lunar New Year (processed foods, seafood) for standards and specifications.

The city will provide administrative guidance with on-site corrective measures for minor violations found during inspections, and take administrative actions for serious violations or intentional and habitual offenses.

A city official stated, “In preparation for the Lunar New Year holiday, we will strengthen hygiene management of highly consumed processed foods used for ancestral rites and gifts to ensure food safety.”
