China denies 49 formaldehyde-tainted sweets in Indonesia MAKASSAR (Antara): The Chinese Embassy has denied that 49 formaldehyde-tainted sweets as announced by the Indonesian Food and Drug Supervisory Agency (BPOM) recently are Chinese products. "We have conducted surveys in the market and found that the 49 sweets are not Chinese products but were produced in Indonesia and two of them in Taiwan," Fang Quichen, a senior official at the Chinese Embassy in Indonesia said Sunday. He said that the BPOM released a statement on July 24, 2007 that it had surveyed 272 Chinese products and found that seven of them contained formaldehyde. "The BPOM once again announced on August 2, 2007 that it had found 49 other sweets from China which were tainted with formaldehyde," Quichen said. He said that his embassy conducted the surveys in a number of shops after it had received a first warning from Indonesia. He said his embassy found that of the samples examined by the BPOM, seven were not produced in China but they were believed to be imitation products illegally smuggled into in Indonesia
