BOGOR: Bogor husbandry agency has seized a total of 168
kilograms of beef from two supermarkets. The supermarkets
allegedly imported the meat from the United States, where a

"The meat is yet to be examined, but, for now, we don't want
American meat products to be sold in Bogor," head of the agency
Herlin Trisnaningsih said on Wednesday.

She added that meat being sold at traditional markets was also
being inspected. -- JP
