The Singapore Food Agency (SFA) has launched an investigation into allegations circulating online that dog meat has been supplied to consumers in Singapore, according to statements released by the regulatory body.
In response to the claims, the SFA reiterated that it has not granted approval for any source of dog meat for human consumption within the island nation. The agency underscored its commitment to ensuring all meat products available to consumers meet strict food safety and quality standards.
The SFA's investigation comes as the agency continues to monitor supply chains and enforce regulations governing the importation and sale of meat products. Singapore maintains stringent protocols for all food imports, with detailed traceability requirements to ensure consumer safety and compliance with local food laws.
Members of the public who have information regarding the allegations are encouraged to contact the SFA. The agency has not disclosed further details about the investigation at this time.
