SEOUL (The Korea Herald/Asia News Network): South Korean government and politicians are scrambling to assure the public that it is safe to eat seafood, amid growing concerns that Tokyo’s 30-year plan to release treated water in north-eastern Japan could be detrimental to the quality of seafood sourced from waters off the Korean Peninsula.
Later this week, the government, the ruling People Power Party, the National Federation of Fisheries Cooperatives and meal service providers for corporations – including Samsung Welstory, Ourhome, Hyundai Green Food and CJ Freshway – will join forces to encourage increased seafood consumption both at home and in corporate meal services.
Uh-oh! Daily quota reached.
