The Singapore
Institute of Food Science & Technology (SIFST) and the Institute
of Food Science & Technology (IFST) of the United Kingdom are
the respective national professional bodies. Both recognise their
international responsibilities in food science and technology and
the important role of the International Union of Food Science &
Technology (IUFoST).
Without in any way detracting from the role of
IUFoST, or from the direct relationships that each of our Institutes
has with other national food science and technology bodies, the
two Institutes have agreed that there would be substantial merit
in direct collaboration between them in matters of common interest
and concern, on an equal and reciprocal basis.
Accordingly, they jointly announce that they formally
recognise each other as Co-operating Societies and each appoints
a person to act as Liaison with the other.
The SIFST Liaison to IFST will be Mrs Ong Kim Lian.
The IFST Liaison to SAAFoST will be Helen Gay Wild,
Chief Executive.
The initial areas of collaboration will be food
safety, public information on food matters, Websites and publications.
