Popular Post webfact Posted April 3, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 3, 2019 Thai school-meals programme served up as global malnutrition-beater By The Nation FILE photo Thailand will propose its school meals programme to the World Food Programme (WFP) as an example of success in combating child malnourishment that can be shared internationally. Thanawat Tiensin, Thailand’s permanent representative to the Food and Agriculture Organisation, the World Food Programme and the International Fund for Agricultural Development, has urged governments to partner with business in forging solutions to the problem of child malnutrition, in line with United Nations Sustainable Development Goals to tackle global food insecurity. Thanawat recently got together with Chareon Pokphand Foods (CP Foods) and CP Foundation for Rural Life to discuss their ideas on nourishing young students. “Successful schemes such as CP Foods and CP Foundation for Rural Life’s ‘Raising Layer for Student's Lunch’ and CP Livestock Myanmar’s ‘Milk for Kids’ are key to achieving food self-sufficiency in a sustainable manner,” he said. “These projects can be guidelines to end hunger across the world as well as bolster Thailand’s reputation as a model for food security.” Supree Baosingsauy, general manager of CP Foundation for Rural Life, said it has been working together with CP Foods on the “Raising Layer for Student's Lunch” project since 1989 to reduce malnutrition among students in remote areas. The company has provided facilities, food and knowledge on layer poultry farming to 700 schools nationwide, helping over 155,000 students receive sufficient protein in their diets. Beyond food security, the project has cultivated social enterprise practices, encouraging students to further develop their farm management skills. The students are able to produce other food supplies such as fish and vegetables by themselves, while surplus products are sold to nearby communities for extra income.

Oxx Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Is this the Thai school meal programme that served children with boiled noodles and fish sauce week after week? http://www.nationmultimedia.com/detail/national/30347315 From the article, "the Education Ministry no longer conducts random checks on lunch quality".

I have yet to see any consistent bathrooms with soap and paper towels, or proper working hand dryers here, not that anyone uses them anyway, which makes you wonder how your food is prepared by workers.

Popular Post fullcave Posted April 3, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 3, 2019 Hot MSG loaded meals fresh from the microwave served up in plastic bowls for the kiddies. Delicious and so nutritional provided by CP chicken group. The company that cares about you health. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinneil Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Thanawat recently got together with CP, should have read he recently received a large brown bag from them. The last company anywhere to be concerned about child nutrition, only concerned about making money and control. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also allows you to use less salt, so lowering sodium intake, and makes nasty tasting green vegetables much more palatable (so children are more likely to eat them). MSG actually helps promote healthy eating. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
