00:00 Before watching the video, I remind you that there is more content on the Hotpot website.
00:04 When food supply was in short supply,
00:07 someone in China threw almost perfect dry food waste into the garbage dump,
00:12 causing a stir among the public.
00:14 Since yesterday, social media has been circulating videos and photos.
00:18 In the garbage dump near Pengheng, Guaraji,
00:21 a large amount of discarded dry food was found,
00:24 including rice, rice noodles, sardines, fried buns, etc.
00:29 Netizens who uploaded related videos said
00:31 the scene of food waste made them very sad.
00:35 At the same time, they don't understand
00:37 why some people would rather throw away these precious food
00:40 than donate it to those in need.
00:43 This incident not only attracted the attention of the whole country,
00:45 but also ignited the anger of some people.
00:48 The former Deputy Minister of the Interior,
00:49 and former member of the Parliament of Guaraji,
00:52 Ismail Saeed,
00:53 issued a statement today confirming
00:55 that the rice and food that were thrown away
00:58 were bought by him before the 2022 election.
01:02 But due to the election,
01:04 the candidate could not donate any items to the voters,
01:07 which caused the food to be piled up and rotten.
01:11 Eventually, he was forced to throw it away in the garbage dump.
01:14 He also apologized for the improper handling of food,
01:17 and promised to take full responsibility.
01:19 Ismail Saeed added that
01:21 he received a complaint from his neighbor two weeks ago,
01:24 which pointed to his warehouse.
01:25 After he had a bad smell,
01:27 he found that the food was rotten and overgrown.
01:30 Even a mouse died in the warehouse.
01:33 So he decided not to distribute the food to the people.
01:36 Since the food was no longer suitable for delivery,
01:39 he also handed some of the rice
01:41 to the chickens and ducks around the house.
01:43 The other part was disposed of.
01:46 Regarding this incident,
01:47 the Ministry of Agriculture also issued a statement this afternoon
01:49 confirming that the rice thrown away in the garbage dump
01:51 was already rotten and could not be safely used.
01:54 At the same time, the authorities have already started an investigation into the incident,
01:57 and hope that the people will not make any speculations.
02:00 A bag of almost perfectly intact 5kg rice
02:06 was thrown away and burned in the open air,
02:09 and smoke was coming out.
02:11 In a garbage dump near Pengheng Guala Jinao,
02:13 in addition to the piled up rice,
02:16 there were also a lot of rice flour, flour, canned sardines, tea bags, etc.
02:20 Even local people found
02:22 that some of the rice was not only packed perfectly,
02:24 some of it was even expired.
02:26 It was too wasteful to just throw it away.
02:29 With these images circulating on social media,
02:31 Pengheng's Solid Waste Management Agency
02:33 also sent a special police officer to the scene today to investigate.
02:36 The agency's director, Sha Luding,
02:38 said at a press conference that
02:40 the relevant garbage dump was not approved by the authorities.
02:43 Although some people have admitted to throwing away some of the garbage,
02:46 the authorities will still start an investigation into this case.
02:49 We will continue the investigation.
02:52 We will discuss with the authorities
02:54 how to ensure that the management of garbage in the area is more regulated.
