Last year, an inspection found rotten milk had been distributed to schools in Bangkok and the surrounding area, prompting the recall of over 100,000 cartons. Milk delivery is due to resume at schools nationwide as many begin the new term tomorrow. Following the previous problems with the scheme, the cabinet ordered the Agriculture and Cooperatives Ministry to adjust its school milk distribution system, said Mr Grisada in the message.
