The Domestic Trade, Cooperatives and Consumerism Ministry is awaiting laboratory test results, to determine if the milk formulas seized at several shops in Johor Baru last week, were indeed fake. Its enforcement director, Datuk Mohd Roslan Mahayuddin said, the ministry will push the Chemistry Department for the report, before taking any further action. He, however believed, the issue was most likely an isolated case, and there is no need to conduct a nationwide investigation on the matter. The ministry will also conduct a meeting with the Health Ministry to discuss the issue. On Thursday, the Johor Domestic Trade, Cooperatives and Consumerism Ministry seized 210 boxes of fake baby formula milk, worth about RM 42,000 from five supermarkets and pharmacies in the state. The five premises were located in Iskandar Puteri, Mutiara Rini, Taman Orkid, Nusa Bestari and Taman Daya. The state's enforcement unit was informed of the existence of the fake milk formula following a case involving a baby who had choked upon consuming the product, in which a complaint was then lodged with the product’s distributor.
