食品安全問題之我見 My View on Food Security

Over the past couple ofyears, several cases of the food scandal have been disclosed on various problem of food security has become a hot button across society. Theprevalence of food insecurity has greatly impacted public health, which thegovernment could not afford to ignore, according to the online edition of thePeople Daily. ­

在過去的幾年中，幾起食品醜聞案件已經在各種媒體上披露。全社會的食品安全問題已經成爲一個熱題。食品不安全的盛行已經大大影響了羣衆的健康，根據人民日報網絡版，政府不應該忽視這一問題。

There are a couple of drivingforces, I would argue, behind this undesirable tide. First, in the course ofthe rapid economic evolution, we ignore moral education, giving rise to therising rate of the problem. More importantly, the lack of adequate regulationand punishment on those illegal producers enforces the trend. ­

我認爲這一不良行爲的背後有很多驅動力。首先，在快速的經濟進化過程中，我們忽視了道德教育，從而導致了這一問題不斷上升。更重要的是，缺乏足夠的對那些非法生產者的監管和處罰加強了這一局面。

As Confucius instructed, itis better late than never. Prompt and strict measures should be taken to turnback this evil trend. The government should launch a massive moral campaign toeducate all citizens and draw up tougher laws to crack down on those irresponsiblecorporations and prohibit them from entering the food industry again. I amfirmly convinced that through our combined efforts we are bound to enjoy morerisk-free foods in the days ahead.­

正如孔子教導的，遲到總比不到好。我們應該採取及時嚴厲的措施來扭轉這一不好的局面。政府應該發起大量的道德運動以教育所有的市民，並制定更嚴厲的法律打擊那些不負責任的企業，並禁止他們再次進入食品行業。我堅信，通過我們的共同努力，我們一定會在未來的日子中享受更多的無風險食品。
