In a new initiative to maintain a high standard for goods, more than 6000 stocks of imported items have been tested by the Sri Lanka Standard Institute to provide the public with quality and healthy products.

 

The new initiative intends to provide the public with quality imported products that meet the relevant Sri Lankan standards. Food items, electronic items, raw material and other such imported products will be tested to see if they meet the relevant quality so as to provide the public with a good choice of healthy and high quality goods, the  Ministry of Technology and Research said.   (Daily Mirror online)

    This is a good move. Hope the checks will be done with 'un-buttered' hands.

    Deepal Saturday, 28 August 2010 01:23 PM

    I hope this move will not fall by the wayside after the start with a bang.

    Does this new move mean that Sri Lanka Standard Institution has been sleeping all this while..

    I think it has been started for long time through import inspection for the items declared as mandatory.

    Do not let the traders dump cheap quality products to Sri Lanka, let them sell it elsewhere, need need quality goods for our money..

    Zarookkandy Sunday, 29 August 2010 05:39 AM

    why we can not check our beloved government minister's qualities & qualification before checking imported goods.
