Health officials say GM food OK

"They're slow with the development of public opinion. Lawmakers are now trying to amend related regulations to fully enforce GM food labeling," Liou said.

KMT lawmaker Eugene Jao (趙永清), with legislators from other parties, proposed an amendment yesterday for the labeling of GM food products. He said that Taiwan would be less competitive in the global market if clear GM food labeling were not available in accordance with the global trend.
