SINGAPORE - Jian Bo Tiong Bahru Shui Kueh said in a Facebook post on Thursday that the Singapore Food Agency has lifted its suspension.

nine kueh manufacturers whose operations were suspended by the food agency on Wednesday,

Mr Eric Ang, the brand's third-generation owner, told The Straits Times that the lifting of the suspension came after his company's own laboratory tests showed that the products did not contain sorbic acid. He explained that their business collaborations with major convenience stores and hotels had been jeopardised after the news of the suspension broke. For example, one company wanted Jian Bo to engage a public relations agency on publicity efforts, to salvage the sales of Jian Bo products.

"We have always worked hand-in-hand with the SFA, and they guide us as to which products can or cannot be used, so we can follow the government guidelines," he added."I was slightly taken aback as I have been eating their chwee kueh for about three years now," said Mr Sunny Tan.

They can file civil lawsuits if they want. anecdotally seems Sfa is data driven.. if their lab test shows it they will act with public interest in mind.

So there shld be a disclaimer now on previous SFA reports and being put as debunked as well as due to loss of reputation and business by Jian Bo, heads should roll and SFA should release an apology because reputable eatablishments with powerful links would have done the same.
