TPP’s Huang questions history of egg importerBy Huang Chin-hsuan and Yang Yuan-ting / Staff reportersUltra Source Ltd was formed solely to obtain government contracts to import eggs and did not exist before a recent egg shortage, Taiwan People’s Party Legislator Huang Kuo-chang (黃國昌) said yesterday. However, Huang told a news conference in Taipei that the government was covering up the origins of Ultra Source. The ministry has also given inconsistent reports about the eggs imported from Japan by Ultra Source, he said. The ministry failed to explain the difference of 5 million to 6 million eggs in its report, he said. A total of 30.81 million eggs were imported from Japan, which weighed 1,843.2 tonnes, it said, adding that there were no missing egg imports.
