Due to mushrooming formalin preserved tofu distribution, joint personnel are deployed to inspect the case. A raid was held at tofu factory at Kampung Rawa, Johar Baru, Central Jakarta.

We inspect the seller, distributor, and producer

Jakarta Head Dept. of Maritime, Agriculture and Food Tenacity, Darjamuni, admitted the raid is held because formalin preserved tofu is still distributed to traditional market.

“We inspect the seller, distributor, and producer,” he said, Sunday (6/12).

Joint personnel of city police, Dept. of Industry and Energy, and Dept. of Health are deployed during raid. Personnel took several samples to be examined. As the result, no formalin preserved tofu found during the examination.

“The violator will be sanctioned according to food act number 18/2012,” he closed.
