PETALING JAYA: Malaysia only imports two types of saltwater fish from Japan for local consumption, says the Fisheries Department.

“As for the import of live fish, the country only brings in freshwater ornamental fish such as the koi from Japan, not saltwater fish,” it added in a statement yesterday.It also reminded all importers to adhere to the law and ensure that each consignment is issued with a health certificate by the Japanese authorities.

The statement came in the wake of Japan’s move to release treated radioactive wastewater from the damaged Fukushima nuclear plant into the Pacific Ocean. The Health Ministry has imposed a Level 4 inspection on high-risk food products imported from Japan, including the monitoring of radioactive material content at international entry points.
