Long time since I have blog, well can't help it had to go for holidays and attend CCA. I will try to finish everything as quickly as possible.I continue with my review, this time about the Sanlu milk scandal. This case has been discussed among many and trials are going on for those involved in the production and making of the chemical. The tainted milk has been said to have killed at least six children and making other 300,000 ill. The company has since declared bankrupt and has tarnished China's food industry far beyond it's borders. Families have been filling lawsuits for compensation and the case is starting to shed more light as things are now clearer as to why they did that and investigations showed that they tried to make it look high in protein. Lawyers have started to speculate that the minimum sentence for them is at least 10 years in jail. Fonterra, New Zealand's largest dairy conglomerate that held a 43 percent stake in Sanlu, said this week that Sanlu would be managed by a court-appointed receiver who would sell off the company's assets and repay creditors over the next six months and has written off its $114m investment in Sanlu, the company said. The ex-head of the firm could get a death penalty if convicted of knowingly selling the tainted milk. Do you think the sentence is too heavy? Give me your comments!
