INTRODUCTION
On 20th November 2011, students of Food Technology Faculty Batch of Semester 1 2011/2012 had visited a canning factory at Chendering. Situated at 898K, Kaw. Perindustrian Chendering, 21080 Chendering, Terengganu, the group of 36 students with an escort from the Science Department, Pn. Husna arrived at the place at about 10.30 a.m. We were greeted by Pn. Roslina bt. A. Hamid and Pn. Nor Hasliza bt. Hashim, who were the factory managers of the factory. Thus, we were divided into two groups of briefing. I was in Pn. Hasliza’s group. She was in charge in the quality control of the products produced. We were brought along the processing steps right from the potato peeling until the sticking of labels. Most procedures are done manually or using semi-auto machineries. Before entering the processing room, each of us were equipped with a pair of PVC rubber boot, an apron, a head cover and a mouth cover. This apparel is compulsory to ensure no air-borne transmitted disease to the food being produced. At the entrance of the processing section, there is a chlorine tub which we need to dip our boots in it before stepping into the room. This is to clear the debris from the sole of the boots as well as to kill the bacteria present. These precautions are measured because food production area must be free of germs and dirt. By the time we visited the factory, the workers were working on making canned chicken curry. It was done the whole day, using a workforce of about 50 experienced workers.

    Many meat packaging companies like yours, are there for processing meat from the animals such as pigs, cows, chicken, turkey, and so on. People may think that the meat that people buy from the market are safe, but what they don't know is the fact that sometimes even the meat on the floor are packaged with the clean meat. The fact is, regulations are needed for this problem, because without regulations many people will become sick. This is a great problem, thus it is my opinion that a solution is necessary. In my opinion a class should be started for all the worker at your factory, and they should be taught that meat that are on the floor should not be packaged with the good meet. The bad meat should first be cleaned before being re packaged, thus resulting in less problematic sickness from unclean meat. Once the meat is cleaned, there will be a significantly depletion of people dying from the food that they eat. You may think that this will be expensive to do, the fact is it won't really cost that much. In fact, all you have to do is find one of the many managers that you already have hired to do the teaching. Finally, it is important that you know that if you adopt this proposal, it will not only save many lives, but you will also be able to raise your met value thus increasing your income.…

    De Beers is a family of companies that dominate the diamond trade and every category of industrial diamond mining. Mining takes place in Botswana, Namibia, South Africa, Sierra Leon and Canada. Today, over two thirds of the world’s diamonds come from one company, De Beers. Cecil Rhodes the founder of De Beers created a monopoly in the diamond trade by forming a cartel, the London Diamond Syndicate, who become the biggest diamond traders in the world. A cartel is formed when there is an agreement between the producers who offer the same resource or product to fix minimum price levels for that product. The main purpose of the cartels were to artificially control and limit supply, fix prices, limit competition and dominate the diamond market all over the world. The company did achieve its goals and is notably the most powerful mining company, not because of their superior product but because of their monopolistic values. According to Stanwick and Stanwick (2009) the company has shown many characteristic traits of ethical egoism which promotes that each person should promote behaviour that is beneficial to one’s own interest and the net output achieved would always be positive. However the outcome of this cartel was negative as it affected the natural market forces and created unfair competition. The sale of a product or service through a cartel is highly unfair, as the customers suffer because of artificial increase in prices. De Beers also crossed the ethical boundaries by the use of Deceitful Advertising. If the prices of diamonds are fixed artificially with an unfair price tagged to…
