Vietnam pork products banned due to swine flu outbreak


THE Government has banned pig livestock and any pork-related products from Vietnam as three farms there are affected by the African swine flu, says Sim Tze Tzin.

The Deputy Agriculture and Agro-based Industries Minister said the move was to protect the farms and farmers in the country as more countries had been detected with the virus.
