Health and safety rules

Due to lack of local research and data on health and safety, the Government of Pakistan follows the health and safety rules of USA for food, pesticides, industries, medicines, traffic management and other sectors. But recent news has shown that the US health and safety rules are very lax and cause long-term damage to the populations.

To the contrary, health and safety rules of Europe, Singapore, Japan and Canada are much better. For the benefit of our people and for the benefit of our environment, the Government of Pakistan should follow the health and safety rules of Europe, especially for ingredients used in food, medicines and household items that are made by local and International manufacturers.
