'Unsafe pork causes unrest among the population'

Never read bigger nonsense from a university. Curious what Kasetsart University would say to this. Through years of professional experience with the consequences of this unbridled antibiotic use in livestock, I can say this: there are no safe upper limits for administration. Period.
In Western European soils, the consequences are already very clear: soil bacteria (the entire range) become/are resistant through the use of animal manure. Chicken feed, cattle feed, pig feed, FISH FOOD and SHRIMP feed… all with antibiotics and usually not the least. Many entero-cocci in Thailand (say in Asia) soil life already have some kind of resistance.
But we just farm like crazy and that is NOT to keep the livestock safe and to protect against animal diseases, but to increase meat production (and then I am not even talking about the administration of things such as clembuterol and similar hormone preparations = another story) but also to limit all failures (too great economic loss). In short, human health is sacrificed for that one cent more (not the farmers in Thailand, but the industrial breeders there, who have little or no control - and even then ?? - to fear).

It is also reported that 80% of the meat is safe and what about the remaining 20%. This statement by a scientist is a joke.

The resistance to 1 antibiotic is built into a specific gene by the bacteria, and it is scientifically almost certain that this gene is also responsible for complete resistance to antibiotics. Furthermore, the normal bacteria will actually die out due to the large use of antibiotics and due to Darwinian evolution, the resistant ones will only survive. And unfortunately this is not a matter of tens of thousands of years (as with the evolution of man, animals,…) but a matter of years (due to the fast reproductive cycle of the bacteria).
The problem is no longer limited to bacteria, but is expanding to other pathogens (pathogens) such as fungi, viruses, etc.). Man has been a magician's apprentice for a while, but at some point in the future will lose out against DNA structures that are evolving faster than scientific research into remedies.
MRS, MRE, ESBL, some strains of the survivors in the bacterial world.
In addition, many additives are also used in livestock that build up an antibiotic effect: such as copper. That also ends up in the soil or… in your diet.
OK you don't immediately feel it until you get into a hospital and you find that very common (hospital bacteria) that can and will cause the death of weakened people (quite a lot in a hospital) unless there is that one product that responds to the bacterial process.
The research into phage treatment (using bacteriophages to launch a large-scale attack on that bacterial strain is still in the research phase. For MRSA, a number of treatment products could prove to be an option, but again this is in the research phase)

In short, if that "scientist" claims that Thai animal production adheres to a healthy limit of application, that is a joke and far from reality.
In European breeding there is a limit (there is no healthy one) and it is then (+/-) checked. In Thailand I see that becoming very problematic given the amount of money that is in circulation.

You may (probably) not die from it, but there are already an uncountable number who have already died from it.
Please note that I am not in favor of reduced meat consumption or anything like that, but I have other questions about the breeding farms. So keep eating meat (if you want to) but know that there is such a thing as this.

Bon appetit and please continue to enjoy your piece of meat because it can be oh so delicious.
