157 dead pigs found in China’s Gan River
A spooky find in a tributary of the large Yangtze River reminded the Chinese of last year’s case of 16,000 pig corpses in Huangpu, Shanghai’s waterway. This has prompted the authorities to think again about the safety of the food industry, according to the South China Morning Post.
The Gan River provides water to several provinces and is a tributary of China’s main body of water. Despite the pig remains, analyses have shown that the water in the river remains usable. At least that's what the Nianchan provincial authorities say.
Labels on the pigs' ears showed the corpses sailed from the city of Zhanshu in central China, but local officials have not yet commented. The case is the fifth in a string of major scandals involving Chinese food producers. Premier Li Kegyan has demanded that China's parliament immediately pass tougher laws regulating the food industry to "make sure every piece of our food is safe."
