Peewee orders inspection of meat sold in Pasay markets

Following the recent seizure by authorities of “double-dead” meat about to be delivered to a public market in Pasay City, Mayor Wenceslao “Peewee” Trinidad has issued a directive to the city’s veterinary office to make regular rounds and inspect the meat being sold in markets and meat stalls all over the city.

Trinidad said the local veterinary office should visit the city’s different public markets more often and be stricter in the inspection of the commodities sold there, especially the meat products.

“We are working double-time to ensure that no ‘hot meat’ will make it to our public market. I will not let Pasay City become a dumping ground of meat from other places that is unfit for human consumption,” he said.
