Indonesia's perspective on food safety regulation in agriculture - an experience - Indonesia's experience on food safety regulation in agriculture

One's health is priority on his/her live and therefore, demands for not only nutritious and good quality but also safe food is a fundamental right to all the people in the world. As trade in food commodities expands internationally regardless nation boundaries, food safety can no longer be considered only as a domestic issue. Since the establishment of the World Trade Organisation (WTO), the standards, guidelines and recommendations of joint FAO /WHO Codex Alimentarius Commission are considered as the benchmarks for international harmonisation. The new WTO rules also require the development of modern food control to ensure food safety.
