Sometimes it really makes you wonder, is money so important that human lives can be sacrificed? Perhaps they may have made a lot of profits for the first few batches that went undetected. But once human lives are involved and it all gets exposed by the news, wouldn’t that cause the company more harm? It’s like a vicious cycle: (add toxins to cut cost) -> (profits increase) -> (death occur from product) -> (boycott product) -> (profits decrease) -> (need to find another cheap way to earn more money) -> cycle repeats until the company gets shut down. And then another one will emerge. But money should never be more important than human lives. You can’t buy lives with money; but when you are alive, you’ll always have the chance to work hard to earn that money.

So for this festive period, let’s give thanks for being alive, and treasure our family and friends. And remember, beware of the susu!
