The Bacolod City Sangguniang Panlungsod (SP) recently passed a resolution applauding and expressing appreciation for Sugar Order No. 3, enacted by the Sugar Regulatory Administration (SRA), which regulates the entry of high fructose corn syrup (HFCS).
City Councilor Caesar Distrito pushed for the resolution’s passage.
“The actions taken by the SRA in addressing [HFCS] is laudable,” he said. “The entry of HFCS in the country is a serious issue, particularly here in our province.”/WDJ
