Furniture Safety
Do you know that your furniture at your house might be hazardous
to your young children? Especially some low quality furniture which did not
take account the safety reasons might always bring dangers to children. For
example, sharp edges and corners, unstable furniture, and heavy items on top of
furniture. All these situations will create unsafe environments for children.
It is estimated that 8,000-10,000 children are injured every year in furniture
tip-over accidents. (totsafe.com).
Actually, there are many steps that you can do to help prevent
injuries to children due to furniture:
1.
Put some soft cushion at the sharp edges of furniture.
2.
Don’t put heavy or fragile stuffs on top of the furniture.
3.
Put drawer latches on all
dresser and drawers to prevent climbing.
4.
Avoid putting toys on top of furniture as children might try to
climb to reach it.
Also, parents are advised to purchase quality furniture as those
furniture might take into account the safety reasons. Hence, the chances of
accident can be reduced. Apart from that, before purchasing furniture, parents
should consider the safety reasons. For example, parents with little kids
should avoid purchasing furniture made from glasses.

Adding Plastic into Food
Some traders are doubted to
use plastic in frying banana. Some traders believe that adding plastic banana
will make the fired banana crispier. This news has really shocked Malaysian as
fried banana is one of the most popular foods among Malaysian.
Those traders should be
blamed for their selfishness. As we all know, plastics when heated will cause a
lot of health problems to human body. In order to earn more money by selling
more fried banana, those traders are willing to do such harmful thing.
As a consumer, we have the
right to get clean and safe food. If anyone has proof on adding plastics to
food, please do not hesitate to report it.
Report those who use plastic in frying fritters

KUALA LUMPUR: The Health Ministry has urged the public to report cases of traders who use plastic in preparing crispy banana fritters as alleged by many.
Its director-general, Datuk Dr Hasan Abdul Rahman, said yesterday unscrupulous traders who did this would be slapped with a heavy fine.
"If there is proof of traders doing so, the public should report it to the ministry."
He said food preparation found to be harmful to consumers' health would result in the traders getting fined not more than RM100,000 or jailed not more than 10 years, or both, under Section 13 (1) of the Food Act 1983.
He said food preparation found to be harmful to consumers' health would result in the traders getting fined not more than RM100,000 or jailed not more than 10 years, or both, under Section 13 (1) of the Food Act 1983.
However, he said according to food technology, adding plastic would not create such a crispy texture.
He was commenting on a reader's letter to the editor on the use of plastic in crispy banana fritters published yesterday.
The letter said that banana fritters tasted better and stayed fresh and crispy even when left outside because they were fried with plastic materials.
The writer said the information came from an article claiming that plastic materials, such as plastic bottles or straws, were thrown into the boiling oil prior to frying of the fritters.
Dr Hasan said health officials would conduct regular inspections on hawkers to ensure that consumers were not sold food that could endanger their health.

Canned food
Canned foods are now
becoming more and more popular around the world so as in Malaysia too. Due to
hectic and busy life, canned foods become the popular choices in the household
as they are easier to prepare and convenient. However, the safety of canned
food should be concerned among consumers.
Here are several reminders
for the consumers when they are choosing canned food.
1.
The expired date of the canned food.
Consumers should always look at the expired date of the canned food.
2.
The nutrients of the canned food.
Even though canned food always labeled as unhealthy food however canned food
should at least contains some nutrients. Every canned food produced in Malaysia
should have the list of nutrients on it. If there is a can food without the
nutrients list, try to avoid buying it.
3.
The ingredients of the canned food.
Some people might allergic to certain chemicals or ingredients. Hence, do look
carefully the ingredients on it, and choose the safest one.
4.
Do not choose the canned food with
its can rusty and corrode. Rusty and corroded can will affect the food inside
it and the health of the consumers will be threatened.
5.
Beware of the canned food with an
extremely long expired date (more than three years). Those canned food might
contain exceeding preservative.
As a
conclusion, be careful when you are choosing canned food. Another advice is
that try to avoid eating canned food if you have enough time to prepare meals. J

New law on food labels to be enforced in June
News taken from: http://www.nutriweb.org.my/article.php?sid=70
Date: Monday, January 13 @ 15:27:04 MYT

KUALA LUMPUR: A new law, to be enforced in June, will require food processing industries to comply with compulsory labelling and nutrition claims for certain types of foods.
Announcing this yesterday, Health Minister Datuk Chua Jui Meng said the categories that would come under the new Law on Nutrition Labelling and Claims include bread, dairy products, canned food, fruit juices, salad dressing, mayonnaise and soft drinks.
He said under the new law, nutrition labelling would be compulsory for four types of nutrients namely energy, fat, protein and carbohydrates.
The ministry finds that there are many food products in the market now which claim to have low fat, low cholesterol content and so on,he told reporters at his ministry Hari Raya gathering at the Kuala Lumpur Federal Territory Health Department, at Jalan Cenderasari here.
He said notification on the proposed enforcement of the new law had been distributed to those in the food processing industry since August 2000.
The minister said that information stated by manufacturers on their product labels must be based on scientific facts. If the product is said to contain low cholesterol, the manufacturer must prove that it contains low cholesterol based on scientific facts.
Most of the claims are more oriented towards product promotion and neglect proper principles of nutrition, he said
This could lead to confusion among consumers in terms of the validity of the claim, he said.
Chua said nutrition labelling was important as it provided information on the nutrient level or content stated on the label.
He said the new regulations, which were approved by the Cabinet recently, was based on recommendations from the Codex Alimentarius Commission, the highest international body on food quality and safety standards, which is a subsidiary body of the UN Food and Agriculture Organisation and the World Health Organisation.

Faber-Castell Malaysia's PVC Free Erasers
Faber-Castell
Malaysia commenced production of erasers in 1980. Its wide range of remarkably
high quality erasers quickly gained momentum, accomplishing a production
capacity of over 500 million pieces a year, which made it among the world's
largest eraser manufacturers.
True
to its philosophy of being innovative and competent towards meeting the
expectations of its customers, the company has remained steadfast in
anticipating and engaging global and environmental concerns; particularly in
child safety and eco-friendly initiatives.
By
the turn of the 21st century, there emerged widespread concern over the use of
Phthalate in manufacturing, a substance commonly added to plastics -
particularly PVC - to increase flexibility and enhance various other features of
plastics. It was discovered - over time - when plastics age and breakdown,
Phthalates that were introduced to PVC during manufacture were easily being
released onto the environment; effortlessly leaching out from products.
Compounding this realization was the fact that Phthalates were commonly used in
the manufacture of children's toys, among other regularly used household items.
As
of 2004, it is estimated that manufacturers produced 800 million pounds of
Phthalate per year. The evidence of this was further substantiated by a test
conducted by the Centre for Disease Control that revealed a majority of
Americans having metabolites of multiple Phthalates in their urine. More
alarming to this revelation was the findings of a joint Swedish-Danish
epidemiologic team in 2004 and subsequent Bulgarian study in 2008 linking
Phthalates to allergies and wheezing in children.
Following the European Union's move in 1999 to restrict the usage of Phthalates, Faber-Castell Malaysia began initiating efforts towards eradicating the use of Phthalates in the manufacture of its series of PVC erasers. The company shortly introduced its new range of Phthalate-FREE Erasers into the market. As such, when the anticipated European Union ban was finally imposed on the use of Phthalate plasticizer in toys and childcare products in 2005, Faber-Castell was prepared to meet the requirement. The new product was quickly accepted due to its safe features, aesthetics and functionality.
Endeavoring to continually deliver
safe and high quality products, Faber-Castell Malaysia resolved to remain
vigilant towards advancing environmental and global issues.
The
company's prepared stance was eventually met in the wake of global
apprehensions towards the manufacture of Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) products.
In the heart of the concern were
Dioxin and Chlorine compounds, chemicals that were released onto the
environment during the use and manufacture of PVC products. These chemicals
were rapidly being linked to cancer and birth defects. What's more, PVC products
are not easily recycled; subjecting a substantial amount of PVC products to end
up in landfills, indiscriminate burning and disposal. PVC was quickly being
singled out by health authorities in Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Germany and the
Netherlands; recommending a ban to its unrestricted use.
In
response to facilitating environmental protection and general safety,
Faber-Castell Malaysia was unwilling to remain idle while awaiting conclusive
proof of the effects of PVC. It responded swiftly by putting to work its
extensive resources in exploring the use of Thermoplastic Elastomers (TPE). TPE
was found to be fully recyclable, safe and more flexible in its original form.
The result was the introduction a new range of erasers - PVC-FREE Erasers. The
new product range was met with vast enthusiasm, and sparked a string of
accolades from both environmental and industrial authorities.
Apart
from responding to safety and environmental concerns in the manufacture of its
range of products, Faber-Castell Malaysia's commitment to its customers will
continue to remain well-rooted. Whether its erasers, pens, pencils or other
implements, the company ensures stringent competency levels are met; which have
been accredited by ISO 9001: 2000 and ISO 14001 certifications respectively for
quality and environmental safety.
So rest assured, when it comes to
Faber-Castell products, you can not only expect high quality and functionality,
you can be sure it’s safe for you, your loved ones, and the environment.

Safety of helmets
Are
you a motorcyclist? Are you using SIRIM-approved helmet? Is your helmet suitable
for your head and it is still safe? There are lots of questions to be asking of
when you are using a helmet. Helmets help to protect motorcyclist heads when
there is an accident happens. However, not all helmets are suitable for motorcyclists.
Every helmet is designed based on various functions and needs. Hence, consumers
should consult the salesperson regarding the suitable helmets.
Besides
that, many consumers don’t know that helmets do have lifespan. Usually, a
SIRIM-approved helmet can be used for three years. After three years, consumers
are advised to change it. Also, if the helmet has been involved in accident,
consumers should replace it with another one to ensure the safety.
Last
reminder is that, no matter how good the quality of the helmet is, if the motorcyclists
do not fasten it, it will lose it function. So, do fasten your helmets before your ride on your
motorcycle.

Plastic Containers
Well, today, let us
talk about plastic safety again. Since we know that polystyrene is not suitable
for packed food, then what should we use for our packed food? Most of us will
opt from plastic container such as Tupperware, Cosway, Apple Lady and so on. Those
plastic containers cost more, but we cannot doubt the benefits that they have
brought.
Here are several benefits of using plastic
container instead of polystyrene container.
1. Plastic containers
are safer than polystyrene containers.
As what we have discussed in another post, polystyrene container disposes poisonous
elements when it is heated. Polystyrene contains the toxic substances Styrene and
Benzene, suspected carcinogens and neurotoxins. On the other hand, plastic containers are safer when
they are exposed to heat. The chances for the plastic containers to eliminate
poisonous gases are lower if compare to polystyrene containers.
2. Plastic containers are reusable.
Unlike polystyrene containers, we can always
reuse plastics containers for different purposes. By doing this, we are giving
out forces to help to save our environment from plastics pollution.
3. Plastic containers can help to keep the food
fresh.
Compare to polystyrene containers, plastics
containers are more suitable for keeping fresh food. Foods that are kept in
polystyrene containers are more likely exposed to the bacteria in the air. On
the other hand, plastics containers help to keep the food fresh.
Conclusion:
However, not all plastics containers have the
benefits stated above. So, do choose reliable brands for your plastics containers.
Some low quality plastic containers might even as danger as polystyrene containers.
As a conclusion, spend some time and spend more money and buy a good quality
plastic container, it save your life and good for your health.

Polystyrene Container
Every
time when you are having your packed meal, do you concern about the container
used for your packed meals? What containers do you usually use for your packed
meals?
Nowadays,
polystyrene containers are the most popular container used for packed lunch.
Due to its lower cost and convenience, most people choose it as the container
for packed meals. Besides that, polystyrene containers are easily available on
the market. However, many consumers do not aware of the negative impacts
brought by polystyrene containers.
First
of all, polystyrene container disposes poisonous elements when it is heated. Polystyrene contains
the toxic substances Styrene and Benzene, suspected carcinogens and neurotoxins. So,
when we pack our fresh warm food by using polystyrene container, the heat of
food will cause the container itself to eliminate poisonous gases. Those gases
might bring harmfulness to our human body such as causing cancer and food poisoning.
Research found that in packaged foods with the addition of heat
(such as microwave temperatures), vitamin A will decompose and produce
m-xylene, toluene, and 2,6-dimethylnaphthalene. Toluene will aggressively
dissolve polystyrene. All those gases will be absorbed into our body tissue and
bring harmfulness.
Lastly, as a reminder, please reduce the use of polystyrene to
pack you food. Do take care of your life and stay healthy.

SIRIM Approved Electrical Appliances
How
safe are your electrical stuffs in your house? Does your kettle have “SIRIM”
logo? Do your plugs labeled with “SIRIM”? If they are not, beware of their
safety. It might cause some unpredictable accident. Why is it “SIRIM” logo
important?
SIRIM
ensures that the particular electrical appliance is suitable to be used in Malaysia.
Besides that, it must be able to operate
at a voltage of 240 (+5%, -10%) and at a frequency of 50Hz. In
addition, it must attached with 3-pin
plug (13A) or 2-pin plug (2.5A), suitable for Malaysian socket-outlet.
Bear
in mind that, if the electrical appliances is not labeled with “SIRIM”, its
safety is not promised. Recent years, some shops tend to import some electrical
appliances from Indonesia, China and so on. Because of the cheaper prices, some
consumers are attracted to buy it. However, consumers need to know that those
appliances do not undergo series of testing and their safety should be doubted.
It is not worth that we buy cheaper electrical appliances which might cause
dangers.
Hence,
consumers should think rationally before they buy electrical appliances. It is
definitely safer for us to buy an electrical appliance with “SIRIM” logo.
Although it might cost more, we should put our safety in the first place.

Plastics Safety
Recent
years, publics have increased their awareness towards plastics. As we all know,
plastics play an extremely important role in our daily lives. Lots of products
are made from plastics.
However,
no all plastic products can be safely used. Some of them might contain
hazardous elements. Also, not all plastic products are reusable. For example,
plastic bottles shouldn’t be reuse as it release poison odour after washed. In
addition, most of the plastics cannot stand heat. Hence, it is not advisable to
pour hot water into plastic bottles. Below, I would like to introduce several
kinds of plastics that we usually use in our daily lives.
1. Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET or PETE)
Usage: Drinking bottles (soft drin, mineral water, etc)
Advantage: Not known to leach any chemicals that are suspected of causing cancer or disrupting hormones.
Usage: Drinking bottles (soft drin, mineral water, etc)
Advantage: Not known to leach any chemicals that are suspected of causing cancer or disrupting hormones.
2. High density polyethylene (HDPE)
Usage: Milk, water, and juice bottles, yogurt and margarine tubs, cereal box liners, and grocery, trash, and retail bags.
Advantage: Not known to leach any chemicals that are suspected of causing cancer or disrupting hormones.
Usage: Milk, water, and juice bottles, yogurt and margarine tubs, cereal box liners, and grocery, trash, and retail bags.
Advantage: Not known to leach any chemicals that are suspected of causing cancer or disrupting hormones.
3. Polyvinyl chloride (V or PVC)
Usage: Most cling-wrapped meats, cheeses, and other foods sold in delicatessens and groceries are wrapped in PVC.
Disadvantages: To soften into its flexible form, manufacturers add “plasticizers” during production. Traces of these chemicals can leach out of PVC when in contact with foods. According to the National Institutes of Health, di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP), commonly found in PVC, is a suspected human carcinogen.

SIRIM-Approve Helmets
Reference: https://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=151165941561384
For years, government has advised that motorcyclists must wear SIRIM-approved helmets. However, some stubborn motorcyclists still refuse to do so. The reason that they give is that SIRIM-approved helmets cost more. In my opinion, motorcyclists should not take the risk.
As we all know, helmets act as important role in protecting motorcyclists’ head when there is an accident. Each year, lots of motorcyclists dead due to the severe damage to head caused by accidents. SIRIM-approved helmets have gone through series of experiments and their qualities are definitely promised. SIRIM is the minimum requirement that a rider’s helmet have to be compliant to be wear in Malaysia start from 1st Jan 2009. Overall, there are three types of helmets that are available on the market.
Full-Face Helmet
Full-Face Helmet is a full-face helmet which provides total coverage to the front and rear of rider's head. An added benefit of the full-face design is built-in eye protection in the form of a visor/face shield.
Flip-up Helmet
Flip-up Helmets are helmet with hybrid design that offer the best of the full-face and three-quarter helmet worlds.
Open-Face Helmets 3/4 Helmet
The open-face three-quarter motorcycle helmet design delivers significant protection for riders who want to feel the wind in their face.
Conclusion:
Never buy a helmet without SIRIM logo as it might not be able to protect your head. Helmets without SIRIM logo do not undergo product checking and their safety and quality are not guaranteed. Lastly, bear in mind that motorcyclists who do not use SIRIM-Approve Helmets will be summoned. Instead of wasting your money to pay the summon, why don’t you just buy a SIRIM-Approve Helmet?
