 During Phase 1 of the Seven Crops project, the Pack House at the Inland Reception and Distribution Centre in Odser was remodeled to meet international standards. The Pack House has been regulated using HACCP standards that identify specific hazards and measures for their control to ensure the safety of food. According to the Chief of the Taiwan Technical Mission, Daniel Lee, this certification and training received by staff further adds to the work being done at the Pack House to ensure that the output adheres to international health and safety standards and meets higher post-havoc processing requirements. For security, it's the most important policy in Senusha. Taiwan Technical Mission works with the Ministry of Agriculture and all stakeholders to enhance the efficiency of the whole food value chain, including to enhance the diversity, productivity and the quality of crops, and the post-havocating process, distribution and marketing. Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, Food Security and Rural Development Barry Morfellisier, acknowledging the efforts of the Government of Taiwan, encouraged other participants to apply the knowledge learned when conducting daily operations as we continue to strive to increase our food security. It is inspiring knowing our employees are better equipped to deal with food safety practices and Pack House operations. The staff of the Senusha Marketing Board, and I'm told staff of Extension as well, will now be better placed to effectively operate the Pack House and thus we make further progress on the vision to become the hub for fresh agricultural produce and increase market access for our local farmers. When this institution SLMB was built maybe somewhat 40 to 50 years ago, it was always envisioned that farmers would sell to the Marketing Board. The Marketing Board would be the premier institution that would facilitate distribution to all other local entities, regional entities and somebody said it. The dream is to also penetrate the international market. So that is what the establishment of this facility is about and that is what we still want to continue working towards. The Ministry of Agriculture in its efforts to increase food safety will continue to work with the Taiwan Technical Mission and other sector agencies to ensure that the food being processed by the SLMB is of original and international standards.
