JAKARTA - The Ministry of Trade (Kemendag) confirmed that the Indomie products found by the Taipei Ministry of Health, Taiwan are the same products sold in Indonesia.

Director General of National Export Development Didi Sumedi said that Indonesia's Indonesian instant noodle product brand Indomie, a special chicken flavor found to contain cancer-triggery substances, was not officially exported by distributors.

However, continued Didi, the instant noodles were brought by Indonesian individuals. As a result, the product has not been adjusted to the standards of the Taipei Department of Health, Taiwan.

"Because many Indonesians import various kinds, one of which is Indomie. Now that is Indonesia's standard Indomie. It's different," he said at the Ministry of Trade, Jakarta, Thursday, May 4.

Furthermore, Didi said that if those who conduct exports are official distributors, the product has been adjusted to the destination country's rules. Including the adjustment of the standard content of ethile oxides that trigger this cancer.

"That's because they have gone through adjustments to the conditions requested by Taiwan. Starting from the content of some of the elements are appropriate. So there is no problem. Well, those problems are imported by individuals," he explained.

Regarding the safety of Indomie products circulating in Indonesia, Didi said this was under the authority of the Food and Drug Supervisory Agency (BPOM).

"That's BPOM, what is certain is that the standards of each country are different. So if we export products, especially the food and beverage, it will adjust to the demands of the country," he explained.
