[QUOTE="Exfarmer, post: 7267922, member: 1951"] We have had bans on such products for years but with no enforcement it is meaningless. Even if it was enforced all it would cause is product displacement. In countries like Myanmar the teak is being harvested on an industrial scal and smuggled again in a sleek operation into China. They were so blase about it , I had no concern about filming it when I was there. Palm oil , when it is loaded on a ship can be from anywhere as can soya, it willhave one set of papers at one end and a completely fresh set the other. Only concerted global action will stop it and that will certainly never happen while the profits are large and at least 50% of the worlds regimes, could not give a toss. [/QUOTE]
