As a result, plantation development has taken place on a large scale in Malaysia and Indonesia. This development has resulted to the illegal deforestation and burning of tropical rain forests, and also gave way to plantation labor issues, including the problem of child labor. <br \/>The dramatic increase in palm oil production is causing serious social and environmental problems. To address these problems, the RSPO was established as a certification organization in 2004. Supporting the mission to strive for healthy palm oil industry development, Megmilk Snow Brand joined the RSPO in July 2018. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Megmilk Snow Brand applies our Group corporate philosophy and the Megmilk Snow Brand Group Sustainability Poli... <a href=\"https:\/\/www.meg-snow.com\/english\/sustainability\/procurementpolicy\/\">\uff08\u7d9a\u304d\u3092\u8aad\u3080\uff09<\/a>","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"parent":196,"menu_order":78,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.meg-snow.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3190"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.meg-snow.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.meg-snow.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.meg-snow.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.meg-snow.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3190"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/www.meg-snow.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3190\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3756,"href":"https:\/\/www.meg-snow.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3190\/revisions\/3756"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.meg-snow.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/196"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.meg-snow.com\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3190"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
