【禁聞】「一國兩豬」內外有別

【新唐人2011年4月23日訊】在大陸百姓飽受「瘦肉精豬內」威脅的時候,輸往港澳的肥豬卻是乾乾淨淨,長年沒有被檢測出「瘦肉精」。這起「一國兩豬」事件曝光後,引起外界的質疑。這背後說明甚麼問題呢?請看報導。

珠海出入境檢驗檢疫局官員說:「我們至今已保持了十一年沒發現瘦肉精的記錄。」

香港《東方日報》報導,自從廣東、香港爆發「豬肺湯事件」後,香港曾對大陸「生豬」供應說過「不」。因此,大陸食品監管部門就「一流產品外銷,二流產品內銷」。

《東方日報》認為,食品安全面前,應人人平等,又何必分個三六九等?為何港澳地區的標準,不能適用於大陸百姓呢?

經濟學家程曉農:「其實這個問題很簡單,歸根結底,就是大陸和香港兩地的政治制度不同。香港是有一定的新聞自由,也有一點的民主。那麼在大陸,大陸民眾沒有任何權利去約束政府,媒體也是中共的喉舌。在這種情況下,那老百姓確實只有白白的犧牲了。」

《BBC中文網》認為,中國的標準如此「內外有別”,讓人糾結,然而,卻不得不接受這個尷尬的事實。“內外有別」的標準,讓中國人很受傷害。

報導強調,歐盟幾乎是國際上公認對食品安全要求最嚴格的地區,中國企業生產的乳製品很難進入歐盟、美國等標準嚴格的市場。這說明人家是將老百姓的健康放在首位的,而中國則是將利益放在首位。

今年3月份,河南「瘦肉精」事件愈演愈烈,權威專家指出,調查研究發現,大陸中毒狀態的豬達到60%,包括瘦肉精、抗生素、重金屬、消毒藥的濫用。

瑞典研究機構早前宣佈,中國某些品牌生產的嬰兒食品含有砷、鉛等重金屬,存在安全隱患。但是,中國疾病預防控制中心通報,都沒有超出中國的標準。

程曉農:「這種政治制度,決定了食品安全問題在中國大陸,很自然的是一種政府不管,而老百姓又管不了的一種問題。所以,對這些食品製造商、食品生產者才敢於那樣肆無忌憚。」

正當中國的食品安全引起各界擔憂之際,為中共領導人提供安全食品的北京「特供處」卻門庭若市。

程曉農:「隨著全國食品安全成為越來越嚴重的問題,所以,中國(共)政府實際上是設立了,所謂特別食品供應基地,去滿足高層官員的需要。換句話講,中國政府只關心高層官員的特權,關心他們的食品安全,但是,並不關心老百姓的食品安全。」

中共機關老幹部活動中心、食品特供中心主任祝詠蘭,在中共國家機關特供產品授牌儀式上講過,成立於2005年4月的「特供中心」是「國務院機關老幹部活動中心,為國家(中共)機關特供有機食品的合作單位」﹔其生產機構遍佈13個省市,「一直為國家94個部委老幹部們提供優質、放心的有機食品」。這段話後來被當局刪除。

One Nation with Two Types of Pork

Though Chinese people have long been threatened

by “lean meat powder” (illegal use of clenbuterol),

none of those cases were ever found in the pork

exported to Hong Kong or Macao. Why the pork for

domestic use is so different from that exported?

Zhuhai customs inspection and quarantine official:

We found no clenbuterol abuse for 11 consecutive years.

According to Hong Kong Oriental Daily, Hong Kong

once refused to accept any pork imported from China

when the “pig lung soup incident” occurred in Guangdong

and Hong Kong. Since then, China's food inspection

department decided to export first-class products to

Hong Kong, leaving the 2nd class for domestic consumption.

Oriental Daily suggested that people be equal

in terms of food safety. Why could not the criteria

for Hong Kong be applied to Mainland China?

Economist Cheng Xiaonong: The reason is simple.

Different systems in HK and China caused the problem.

There are press freedom and some democracy in HK,

but in China, people are subordinated to the regime.

The media in China are also under the CCP's control.

Therefore, citizens have no other choices but suffering.

BBC Chinese commented that it was ridiculous

and awkward to have such a difference in China.

It was so heartbroken to Chinese people.

The report also stressed that EU was known for

the most rigorous food safety examinations,

so made-in-China dairy products are difficult to enter

the EU and the U.S. markets. This indicates that EU

and the U.S. give priority to the public health,

while in China, interests took the top place.

As the Henan “lean pork powder” incident intensified

over time, experts said about 60% pigs in China

had been affected due to the illegal use of antibiotics

heavy metal, clenbuterol, and disinfectants.

Swedish research institute earlier announced that

excessive amount of arsenic and lead was found

in some Chinese baby foods, but Chinese authorities

said it was acceptable based on Chinese standards.

Cheng: Such a political system in China caused

the food safety issue to be ignored by the government

and yet the people are too powerless to control it,

rendering food producers and merchants unbridled.

While food safety issues aroused international concerns,

the “Special Food Supplies” for the CCP officials

were booming for their safe foods.

Cheng: As the national food safety problems heighten,

the CCP regime set up the so-called special food supply

bases for the needs of high-rank officials, instead of

solving the problems for the entire nation.

In other words, the authorities only worry for

their own food safety but not for the ordinary folks.

Zhu Yonglan, director of the CCP's Special Food Supplies,

said in the inaugural ceremony in Apr. 2005 that

this special division was a co-op to provide safe, organic

foods to the Departments and the senior centers of

the State Council. Its production sites are located

over 13 provinces or cities. However, the wording

to describe this organization, “constantly providing

quality and safe foods to 94 senior officials』 centers of

the government” was later deleted by the authorities.
