    VERA FILES FACT SHEET: Problems rocking the salt industry?

    By VERA Files  |  Jan 26, 2023 6:31 PM

    Sen. Cynthia Villar, who chairs the committee, said Republic Act No. 8172, known as the Act for Salt Iodization Nationwide (ASIN), has become a “deterrent” to the development of the industry that produced 300,000 metric tons of salt in 1994, a year before ASIN became law.
