Japan gives green light to liquid baby formula sales
Thursday, August 9, 2018
At first I thought, what does green light mean ? It means, to allow a project, plan etc to begin. It might be related to a traffic light. That shows cars or people they can go forward.
When the great earthquake of Kumamoto happened, at opportunity that a Finnish company offered liquid baby formula as emergency aid, the production and sale of liquid baby formula were approved in Japan on Wednesday. In fact, it seems to be a long way off that liquid baby formula is distributed, I hope that is done as soon as possible because of an emergency food for babies.
まず、green lightって何？と思い調べてみたら、許可とか容認という意味なんですね。道路信号の色と関係があるのかな。信号の青(緑)も通るのを許可しますということですものね。
熊本大地震の時にフィンランドの会社から緊急援助として液体ミルクが提供された事を機に、日本でもその製造及び販売が水曜日に許可されました。実際に流通するのはまだ先の事になりそうですが、赤ちゃんの非常食ですから早く実現するといいですね。
