He said aquariums are made specifically for rearing fish and are not suitable for keeping food and drinks.
“Aquariums are normally made of glass, acrylic or plastic material and may contain chemicals like lead or phthalates, which can dissolve in and contaminate the water and be harmful to health,” he said in a statement today when commenting on viral reports on the issue.
Dr Muhammad Radzi said the Ministry of Health (MOH) through its Food Safety and Quality Division (BKKM) would continue to monitor the sale of food and drinks to ensure traders abide by food safety regulations.
He said consumers who have enquiries on food safety can contact the nearest District Health Office or State Health Department or visit the ministry website http://moh.spab.gov.my or BKKM Facebook www.facebook.com/bkkmhq.– BERNAMA
