Due to a series of food safety incidents, including the discovery of elevated levels of mercury in baby formula, the country of China has found itself on the receiving end of consumer fears. These several food safety issues have decreased global confidence in products manufactured in China, which will ultimately create a negative impact on the Chinese food export industry if problems are not addressed promptly. In an effort to do so, the Chinese government has launched a five-year plan aimed at improving and enforcing food safety regulations. Global Food Technologies, an ...

This law states that people injured in bodily injury claims arising out of matters such as automobile, truck, or motorcycle accidents, will be required to pay the opposing side's legal fees in the event that they lose the case.
