    According to the World Trade Organization statistics for 2014, food products comprise the third most valuable commodity group traded globally, and imports constitute a significant proportion of food supplies. With the annual trade in food growing exponentially, imported food controls need to be strengthened to protect consumer health and ensure fair trade. In 2017, the Governments of Myanmar, Nepal, the Philippines and Sri Lanka worked under the FAO project entitled “Strengthening national capacity for risk-based food import control within a One Health framework” to improve national imported food control systems and ensure they are aligned with the relevant international guidelines developed by Codex Alimentarius. The project significantly contributed to one of the FAO’s Strategic Objectives, “Enabling inclusive and efficient agricultural and food systems” (SO4), as all of the relevant national authorities have initiated the employment of systematic and inclusive approaches in effective imported food control.
