Slap! The Green Camp claimed that the quarantine rate of pineapples sold from Taiwan to the mainland was 99.7%, and Congressman Lan Ying told the truth.
[Global Net Reporter Yin Yanhui] The General Administration of Customs of the Mainland China has decided to suspend the import of pineapples from Taiwan from March 1 this year. A green camp official claimed that the pass rate of Taiwan pineapples has reached 99.7% in the past four months.
On the 4th, KMT Tainan City Councillor Xie Longjie explained in detail about the customs clearance of pineapples in the mainland. The face-slapped officials said that the quarantine rate of pineapples reached 99.7%.
According to a report from Taiwan's Zhongshi News Network on March 5, according to the statistics of the Taiwan Agriculture Committee, in 2020, Taiwan's fresh pineapple exports to the mainland will exceed 40,000 tons.
Regarding the mainland's claim that Taiwan pineapple has been found to be harmful, Green Camp officials claimed that the quarantine rate of Taiwan pineapple has reached 99.7% in the past four months.
Xie Longjie stated on the 4th that scale insects were detected when Taiwan pineapples were exported to the mainland. They had occurred last year and notified Taiwan. Taiwan usually requires fumigation to be released after fumigation. The fumigation fee is NT$10,000 per container.
Last year, the mainland notified that it would no longer be fumigated, so unqualified pineapples were either destroyed or returned.
According to reports, fumigation is the use of methyl bromide to kill scale insects.
Xie Longjie said that the official said that Taiwanese pineapples have a pass rate of 99.7% for export to the mainland. In fact, pineapples are cleared in Xiamen. A 20-foot container contains 700 boxes, about 7 tons, and 6 boxes will be provided for quarantine. If quarantine reaches scale insects , The result is destroyed or returned.
Most merchants choose to return shipments because they can be sold back to Taiwan, and return shipments are not included in the calculation of the pass rate. This is the truth of the so-called 99.79% pass rate.
"If the subsidy is adopted, what about the other fruits? Where do I get the pineapples I bought?" Xie Longjie said, to help the farmers, or to return to quarantine and clean up the scale insects.
The mainland is no longer willing to fumigate pineapples. Should we fumigate in Taiwan?
Do you want to be a certified packaging factory?
This is the way.
Xie Longjie also said that if Taiwan deliberately distorts and does not sit down and talk, it will be a blank eye (describe a person who does not know the situation, does not know the situation, talks nonsense, and is wise), and does not put the rights of farmers in his heart, but uses farmers and pineapple Get political benefits, kill farmers, dirty!
On February 26, the General Administration of Customs issued a notice on its government website regarding the suspension of imports of Taiwanese pineapples due to harmful organisms. Subsequently, the spokesperson of the Tsai Ing-wen government and the Democratic Progressive Party took the opportunity to play political operations, saying that this was the mainland's use of economic means. Tsai Ing-wen himself also expressed “condemnation” on his personal social media to put pressure on Taiwan, vowing to invest NT$1 billion to reduce losses, and gave “countermeasures”, calling on all people in Taiwan to eat pineapples and support Taiwan’s farmers.
Tsai Ing-wen’s office spokesperson Zhang Dunhan once claimed that the qualified rate of Taiwan’s pineapples sold to the mainland last year reached 99.75%, so the suspension of imports this time is by no means a well-intentioned act and will not be supported by the people of Taiwan.
Regarding the political operations carried out by the DPP authorities, the spokesperson of the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council Zhu Fenglian stated on March 1, that the General Administration of Customs decided to suspend the importation of pineapples from Taiwan to the mainland from March 1, 2021. This is a normal biosecurity precaution. The measures are completely reasonable and necessary.
The implementation of inspection and quarantine of imported agricultural products by the customs in accordance with the law is required to implement relevant laws, regulations and standards, as well as to prevent plant epidemic risks and protect the rights and interests of the people.
However, the DPP authorities deliberately misrepresented and maliciously interpreted technical issues and took the opportunity to attack and discredit the mainland.
This fully exposed their consistent practice of malicious manipulation in all cross-strait affairs, which shows that they have neither the will nor the ability to solve practical problems, and they can only evade their own responsibilities by slandering the mainland.
