Hi Dr. Tartnfurter,

xox,
Heather

Aggressive push for baby formula in Vietnam - Kids and parenting- msnbc.com

That is horrible

Quote:

Among the most serious violations that sources described separately to the AP were commissions paid to doctors to sell formula.Workers at a women's health clinic in Dong Nai province had an exclusive deal with Dutch Lady, a brand of Friesland Foods, based in Meppel, the Netherlands, said Dr. Vo Thi Kim Loan, the clinic's former vice director.
"We got a small commission for each can," she said.
