“Joining the Rotterdam Convention is a necessity, because when there is the import of hazardous chemicals into our country, we will be informed in advance.”Cambodia is planning to apply to an international convention that could help reduce the number of illegal hazardous chemicals coming into the country, a senior official said last week.
The government is considering application to the UN’s Rotterdam Convention, which outlines responsibilities of states towards each other regarding chemicals.
“The ministry is considering convention membership because we want to prevent other countries from using Cambodia as a trash bin for their hazardous chemicals and pesticides,” Agriculture Minister Chan Sarun told a meeting of government and development officials on July 14.
The meeting was to discuss a draft law to bolster protections against pesticides and other dangerous chemicals.
The Rotterdam Convention requires proper labeling and and instructions from countries of origin for chemicals, as well as disclosures on restrictions or bans of the chemicals. Both Thailand and Vietnam are among the 134 parties to the convention.
Meanwhile, Cambodia struggles with dangerous chemicals, with only about a third of all chemicals in local markets registered with the Ministry of Agriculture. Of them, only 14 percent have instructions and other labels in Khmer.
“Joining the Rotterdam Convention is a necessity, because when there is the import of hazardous chemicals into our country, we will be informed in advance,” said Keam Makara Dy, a health program manager for the Cambodian Center for Study and Development in Agriculture.

Eh “just google kid = Viet agent”.
Some people might love sucking human cocks.
But it seems to me that you love to suck the donkeys’ cocks; they are bigger and ejaculate more to satisfy your thirst.
Now you have to choose, the human or animals cocks? But, I am sure “doo meh mey” you will pick the donkeys; they are juicier. Keep on sucking you “ăn bẩn thỉu âm đạo=eat filthy pussy”.
as part of the anti-acid attack law, cambodia should control the sale of acids in the country.

You have googling for the longest time and you still haven't find your mother and your father! This mean only one thing and that you are a child of a bastard and a bitch!
Don't deny your past because it can only make you more crazy!
This is a positive move by the Cambodian government to ban dangerous chemical in food, drink, and utensil from entering Cambodia because many of the consumer products in Cambodia are imported from neighboring countries and beyond that have no regard for human life as long as it makes profit! Yes…it is dirt cheap and very dangerous too!
Dangerous chemical!
Such monosodium glutamate (MSG), which can cause headaches, nausea, weakness, difficulty breathing, drowsiness, rapid heartbeat, and chest pain, must be identified on food labels ….http://www.sustainabletable.org/issues/additives/

You forgot about your mother and sister(s) are female as well. Keep doing what you're doing and don't forget to check on them regularly because they might do the things that you're trying to tell people here about the Khmer do for a living. If you happen to find out your relatives are doing it maybe you should join them and feel how good it is and at the same time making money, then you'll understand why they do it. The key word here is understanding, maybe this is too hard for you.
To 10:32AM
Fool! I didn't forgot about your mother and sister(s) who are female as well. I keep doing what you're doing and I don't forget to check on you regularly because you might do the things that you're trying to tell people here about yourself doing for a living. If I happen to find out about your relatives are doing it maybe I should join them and feel how good it is and at the same time making money, then you'll understand why they do it.

Sorry not to 10:32 AM, a special respond to 5:54 AM & 5:55 AM

I think reading the above comments way too far from the subject. Comments should also give knowledge to readers, not suck and fuck all the time.
The reasons why Cambodia Pesticide Traders import hazardous pesticide because the pest is resistant to the previous use of pesticide - it is knowledge related itself and the consequence is the country has to use stronger pesticide. Also the country is weak in reinforcing the laws - are you happy now?
These chemicals need to be regulated and they are the silent killers for thousands of Cambodian every years. We need to have all chemicals rebelled, so Cambodian can read with clear instruction how to use them properly. They cause Cambodians millions of dollars each for health related sickness. It is above time the Cambodia government taking control of this issue.
Think about this,
I beleive the time is enough for Hun Sen. He is real the King of TERRORIST in Cambodia. All the Khmer parties should file him to UN Court. Get him to UN-COURT as soon as possible.
Do we still keep him ruling in Cambodia or it's time for him to face with justice?
Bravo!
It's about time now someone is doing something about the clean up. For many years have been fill in with a lot of junk materials from all over the place, I mean world.
Our mother land is so beautiful and full of over growth corruption. From Europe, The East and West if they want something from Cambodia, all they have to do is make something up like, donation. That's right. DONATION. Oh, we fund Cambodia this and that. But, fiqure out who end up paying back the pricipal and interest? Think about it? Hey Khmer People, wake up and smile the debts for our children, grand-children and children of a children.
