JAKARTA - Head of the Health Resources Division of the DKI Jakarta Provincial Health Office (Dinkes), Indra Setiawan, revealed that so far he has not received reports of instant noodle products in Indonesia that are suspected of containing carcinogenic substances that trigger cancer.
"Still waiting for an official statement from the Indonesian Food and Drug Supervisory Agency (BPOM) which has the Food Supervision Authority in Indonesia. From the BPOM application for the Onion Chicken flavor instant noodle (specifically Export) products, it already has an MD Circular Permit Number 231526655001," said Indra when contacted in Jakarta, Antara, Thursday, April 27.
As is known, Taiwan's Ministry of Health found instant noodle products from Indonesia and Malaysia that contain carcinogenic substances that trigger the growth of cancer cells. Instant noodles from Indonesia in question are Indomie Rasa Ayam Special.
Meanwhile, at one of Tambun mini supermarkets, Bekasi, Indomie Rasa Ayam Special is still neatly arranged on a shelf side by side with flavor noodles and other brands.
One of the residents of South Tambun, Bekasi, named Taj Huriyah, said that he did not know the information about the Indomie Rasa Chicken Special which contained this dangerous substance.
"I really like eating the noodles, last two weeks I was still eating. I just didn't know that Indomie Rasa Chicken Special was such a dangerous content," said Taj Huriyah Salsabil when contacted, Thursday.
Furthermore, Taj Huriyah said that if the information was correct, he would replace the Special Chicken Rasa Indomie with other flavors that would be safer.
"I've already eaten too, I hope it's okay. If it's true that Indomie Rasa Ayam Special contains such a dangerous content, in the future I will replace Indomie with another taste," explained Taj Huriyah.
