After more than two years of silence, practitioners in Malaysia bird's nest "fight" for the Chinese market once again.
"Bird's nest sales season, the Spring Festival is China's huge market. Recent reports emanating from the industry, in January next year will have the result, everyone is waiting for further notice, see won't keep up with the Spring Festival." Malaysia a bird's nest business owners Lin Zhen (a pseudonym) told China business news reporter.
Lin Zhen puts it, the result of the "ban" is, in fact, China schedule of Malaysia bird's nest. Exports to China in 2011, Malaysia bird's nest because of quality problems are all off the shelves. Since then, more than ninety percent of Malaysia bird's nest so slow.
Last month, the general administration of quality supervision, inspection and quarantine export to Malaysia to check the bird's nest again. Bird's nest industry association executive vice President and secretary-general of Guangdong province Xu Bing said that Malaysia bird's nest can import or recovery in January.
Anxious to China "ban"
Lin Zhen just one of practitioners waiting for weight into the Chinese market opportunity of the bird's nest, more than two years of time, her mood swings between hope and despair.
In April this year, China experts delegation has arrived in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia bird's nest industry investigation and inspection, which makes Malaysia bird's nest practitioners renewed hope. After China experts of quarantine, the tested 15 horse bird's nest in the enterprise, finally determine the eight bird's nest of qualified companies.
In fact, the Chinese delegation after the first batch of inspection, many practitioners Malaysia bird's nest as slow-moving can weigh more than two years of bird's nest into the Chinese market a positive signal, but still did not see the slightest movement, after months in the past they lost in disappointment again.
"The Chinese market is very big, many people anxious to wait, because have been waiting for two years." Lin Zhen said, at present, the bird's nest enterprises can only through the association urged relevant government departments to speed up the pace of "lifted" bird's nest." Many don't know how to pin after Yan Nong picked bird's nest, and the price is very low, was reduced by 75%. That kind of mood it is hard to describe, everyone is very painful."
Malaysia bird's nest industry sources said, at present, about 60000 Malaysia bird's nest, bird's nest inventory backlog of serious, the price also from about 6000 ringgit per kilogram (about 12000 yuan) dropped to 1500 ringgit (about 3000 yuan).
The construction of the standard of Bird's nest should follow up
In Malaysia, bird's nest by the forestry department and the health inspection department management, bird's nest export should be issued by the ministry of health. Lin Zhen said, need to go through the control of the two departments to submit the bird's nest to China. But, she says, despite the quality control, but like Chinese caterpillar fungus, or other rare tonic, always have the unscrupulous businessmen to fraud.
Lin Zhen thinks, bird's nest will makes the whole industry experiences a shake-up in the process. Because of the bird's nest price continued to fall over the past two years, profit space is very narrow, the people have not to think how to fake it. Now goods is much and the price is cheap, difficult to fake bird's nest on the market are looking for.
"We are very much looking forward to China to open the market entrance, after market access standards will change." Standard construction, in Lin Zhen’s point of view, is another product that the bird's nest events brings.
Lin Zhen said, "The bird's nest in the bird's nest standard producer and China lack of communication." Because of the bird's nest is not domestically produced in China, in China there is no standard of bird's nest.
Bird's nest almost a year after the incident, the Chinese ministry of health official website published new rules about bird's nest: the production and business operation and imported edible bird's nest, per kilogram of bird's nest of nitrite content shall be less than or equal to 30 mg. Regulations at the same time, the use of edible bird's nest bird's nest products processing, production and operation enterprises shall use the meet the requirements of the above raw material for edible bird's nest, the nitrite content in accordance with the proportion of edible bird's nest in the bird's nest products are reduced.
"Create a standard takes a long time, involve from the source to the back of the each link. China's work in this respect is very strict, we also try to cooperate, can submit information provided to the Chinese side", said Lin Zhen.
