I don't know how much Tanzania know about GMOs. Back in 2002, it became a hot issue in Southern Africa when those countries were suffering from drought and famine and refused to accept American food aid which were based on GMOs. They feared having their seed banks contaminated which would prevent them from exporting food to EU countries. I doubt Tanzania exports food to EU countries, so GM food may slip into Tanzania without anyone bothering, particularly if the government has no policy in place. I doubt they do.
And I think it would be too hasty to attribute the rising cases of cancer to GM food.On Tue, Sep 4, 2012 at 1:23 PM, elias mhegera <mhegeraelias@yahoo.com> wrote:
