Not only in China-Thailand and Srilanka countries have high concentration of melamine on their biscuits products

Swiss authorities say they have found high concentrations of melamine in biscuits from Thailand and Sri Lanka and have called on other European countries to withdraw the products.Authorities in the canton (state) of Geneva say tests have shown high melamine levels in the Thai biscuits Milk Cookies S&P and the Sri Lankan candies LemonPuff Munchee.Melamine in milk has been blamed for the deaths of four infants and for sickening more than 54,000 others in mainland China.The authorities said in a statement Monday that the European distribution channels for the two biscuits have been identified.They say tests on a dozen baby milk products have shown no melamine contamination. Why are these countries such as China, Thailand and Sri lanka includes melamine in their production? Are they using it for an extenders to stretch the production or are they using it for bad reasons. Maybe this melamine is really included in food productions but can be harmful if exceeds its tolerable limits.
