Hi, I would like to raise a concern regarding the hygiene practices at the Paragon Cold Storage raw fish section. Previously, there was a Malaysian Muslim woman who handled the raw fish counter. She was extremely professional — from cutting to packaging raw fish, she maintained excellent hygiene standards. She always changed her gloves after handling raw fish, washed her hands, and ensured that plastic bags were kept clean before handing them to customers. Her careful and thoughtful work prevented any risk of cross-contamination. However, she no longer seems to be there. Recently, the Malaysian Muslim man currently stationed at the counter has been handling raw fish very poorly. Raw fish blood often ends up all over the plastic bags, and he hands them directly to customers in that condition. He also does not change or remove his gloves before placing the fish into the bag, causing the entire bag to be contaminated with raw blood. This poses a serious health risk, especially when customers are handling these bags barehanded. If a customer is with a child and later holds the child’s hand, the child could easily put their hand in their mouth, leading to potential exposure to bacteria or diseases. I sincerely urge management to look into this matter seriously. Please provide proper training to all raw meat department staff to ensure strict hygiene practices are followed. Food safety is crucial, and customers’ health should never be compromised.
