S. Korea authorizes poultry imports from Chile

ProChile, an arm of the Foreign Ministry, said the decision was the successful conclusion of a process that began in March 2004, and provided "unprecedented" opportunities for Chile's poultry products to enter the Asian market.

Last year, South Korea imported more than 86 million U.S. dollars worth of frozen chicken and turkey. And in the first 10 months of this year, it had imported poultry products worth 65.3 million dollars despite the world poultry crisis triggered by avian flu.
