Taiwan decides to deregulate the imports of US beef fed with Ractopamine

The Ma Administration in Taiwan just decides to deregulate the imports of US beef fed with Ractopamine, which is still banned by the European Union. There is no international standard about beef fed with Ractopamine provided by the Codex Alimentarius Commission.

The spokesperson of Ma Administration stated that, since there is no scientific evidence showing that consuming US beef fed with Ractopamine constitutes 'material injuries' to human health, the imports of beef fed with Ractopamine would be deregulated. It seems that Ma Administtration has adopted the US approach, instead of the precautionary principle.

Before, only three meetings compoesed of experts has been summoned. There is no consensus among experts. No local risk assessment about the risks of consuming the US beef fed with Ractopamine by Taiwanese people has ever been conducted. The Ma Administration mainly relies on the research provided by the US to support its decision. Furthermore, there is no risk communication before this decision.

Subsequently, it is first worthy to observe whether the Ma administration can fully enforce the requirement of mandatory labelling on the beef fed with Ractopamine to inform consumersas it pormised. Also, without conducting a local risk assessment of the risks brought by the consumption of beef fed with Ractopamine on Taiwaneses, how could the Ma Administration justify the different treatments between beef and pork? The other trading partners may challenge this distinction later. They may question that the remaining ban on pork fed with Ractopamine and the like medicine is due to Taiwana's domestic pork industry protection.

Furthermore, it is even questioned whether the US will be satisfied with this result, since still all interal organs of  would be excluded and banned,  and whether the Parliament and the public will accept it, though the KMT (ruling party) are still the majority in the Parliament.
I am a bit depressed about this result. No due process. No scientific assessment about local people. Even no risk communication before decision.

I am looking forwards to your opinion.
