53. Monsanto
has revealed that half of the US’s sweet corn
farms are planted with genetically modified
seed. Mice fed with GM corn were discovered to
have
smaller offspring and
fertility problems.
57. China Daily
an online journal, reported potential serious
public health and environment problems
with
genetically modified rice
considering its tendency to cause allergic
reactions with the concurrent possibility of
gene transfers.
61. Milk from cows contains increased levels of
IGF-1 (insulin growth factors-1).
Humans also have IGF-1 in their system.
Scientists have expressed concerns that
increased levels of IGF-1 in
humans have been associated with
colon and breast cancer.

72. As of June 14, 2010, new regulations
regarding the labeling of genetically
modified organisms (GMOs) in food have
been enacted in Malaysia through
83. Malaysian consumers maybe know about the
existence of the GMF but do not have enough
understanding of the underlying concept,
which might be influencing their purchasing
intentions regarding GMF.
84. As Malaysian consumers are found to show
greater concerns for the risks attached with the
GM food, it is suggested that more efforts
should be laid by the policymakers from
government and industry to increase
knowledge about benefits of GM food.
85. This increased knowledge is a key to help lower
the consumers‟ perception level of risks and
lever the perceived quality in turn (Klerck &
Sweeney, 2007; Linh, 2009).
