[Title] => Tuna exporters push bid for lifting of 9-yr Japan ban
[Summary] =>
Filpino exporters of smoked tuna will again present to Japanese quarantine and health authorities an independent study that proves this method is safe, in a bid to lift the nine-year ban on the product.
"This issue needs to be resolved and the Japanese government has to justify why they are keeping out our exports despite several testimonies and evidences that show that smoked tuna does not pose health risks to humans," said Dick Alves, who represents the Fresh Frozen Seafood Association of the Philippines (FFSAP) based in Gen. Santos City in Mindanao.
