Health Ministry to develop standard for bird nest products

Loading ... Loading ...

KUALA LUMPUR: A study is being carried out by the Health Ministry to develop a specific standard for bird nest products under the Food Regulations 1985.

Health Minister Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai said this was to enhance consumers’ confidence on the safety level of bird nest products since it was a new industry.

“Safety and quality control of all bird nest products will also be upgraded to ensure they are safe and of quality,” he said in a statement here Thursday.

He said bird nest producers would also be registered in the food premises registration system through fosimdomestic.moh.gov.my to make it easier for them to comply with the Food Hygiene Regulations 2009.

Liow said the ministry also introduced the 1Malaysia Food Safety Scheme (SK1M) to assist small and medium entrepreneurs, including producers of bird nest products to carry out their own food safety control programme.

He said the ministry would also work with the Agriculture and Agrobased Industry Ministry to ascertain the safety of raw bird nests at the farm level.

These initiatives are made to realise the government’s aspiration of making the country’s swiftlet farming industry a high-impact industry, and to ensure the bird nests products were safe and of quality, he added. – Bernama

Swiftlet operators told to abide by the rules or face consequences

Loading ... Loading ...

SWIFTLET farm operators in Perak should abide by the legislation and guidelines set by the state government or be prepared to face the consequences.

Perak Information, Rural Development, Poverty Eradication and Plantation Committee chairman Datuk Saarani Mohamad said strict compliance was necessary to ensure the industry could flourish without disturbing the environment and the harmony of the people.

Saarani said the reluctance of the operators to comply with the regulations would only create a negative impact on the development of the industry.

He said noisy commercial swiftlet farms located close to homes was the most common complaint received from the public.

“Operators should be mindful that recorded bird calls used to attract swiftlets would only be allowed to be played from 7am to 10am and from 5pm to 8pm.

“The speakers should be facing 45 degrees upwards and the volume must be less than 40 decibels.

“Apart from that, swiftlet houses must be located at least 100m from any urban settlement,” he said after opening the Good Swiftlet Husbandry Practice course at the National Agribusiness Terminal in Gopeng recently.

Also present was state Veterinary Services Department director Datuk Dr Quaza Nizamuddin Hassan Nizam.

Saarani said the public could lodge complaints with their respective local authorities against any operator who did not comply with the industry’s rules and guidelines.

He said that under a new regulation introduced early this year by the Agriculture and Agro-based Industries Ministry, errant operators could be compounded while repeat offenders risked having their operating licence revoked.

He added that licence of 130 errant operators in the state had been suspended since last year.

“According to statistics from the local authorities, there are 1,991 swiftlet farm operators in the state involving 3,245 premises.

“Of the total, 85% of the premises are located in urban areas while the balance 15% are in rural and suburban areas,” said Saarani.

He said Manjung, Hilir Perak, Kerian, Larut Matang and Selama were the districts that had a high distribution of swiftlet farms.

He said the swiftlet industry in the state generated about RM150mil annually.

Meanwhile, Dr Quaza said Perak was among several states, namely Johor, Pahang, Terengganu, Kelantan, Kedah and the Federal Territory of Labuan, that had adopted the new guidelines to regulate this multibillion-ringgit industry.

He said that under the new guidelines, swiftlet farm operators who wanted to apply for a licence or renewing their existing licence must show the attendance certificate as proof that they had attended the course.

A total of 350 swiftlet farm operators from all over Perak attended the one-day course.
