As State redoubles efforts, experts say wide-ranging revisions are necessary

BEIJING - Chinese authorities will take unprecedented efforts to rectify the much-criticized food industry in an effort to prevent new scandals from undermining the public's confidence in the nation's food sector.

The government will continue to overhaul the food industry, concentrating in particular on dairy products, cooking oil, health foods, meat and alcohol this year, said Zhang Yong, director of the executive office of the food safety commission under the State Council, the nation's Cabinet.
