"We need to prevent the urban malaise and avoid the situation in which high-rises co-exist with shantytowns."
安全奶粉 safe infant formula
因香港近日颁布“奶粉限带令”，两会上卫生部部长、国家工商总局局长遭遇记者“狂轰滥炸”式追问，核心都是食品安全问题。
The government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region has cracked down on cross-border parallel trading in infant milk formula to ensure local stores don't run out ofstock. The new regulation, starting from March 1, allows a person leaving the city to carry a maximum of two cans, or 1.8 kilograms, of infant formula.
