India
pulls plug on Coca-Cola bottling plant over water worry
--------------
A
Coca-Cola bottling plant has been ordered to close in northern India after local
farmers blamed it for using too much water, creating fresh headaches for the
world’s biggest soft-drink maker in one of its most important markets.
Authorities withdrew consent for the Hindustan Coca-Cola Beverages plant in the
state of Uttar Pradesh, where ground-water levels have been critical for more
than a decade, according to the government.
印度關閉一家可口可樂工廠

由于被當地農民投訴用水過多，印度北部一家可口可樂(Coca-Cola)裝瓶廠被勒令關閉，這給世界最大軟飲料廠商在其最重要的市場之一提出了新的難題。印度政府表示，主管部門吊銷了印度斯坦可口可樂飲料公司(Hindustan Coca-Cola
Beverages)北方邦工廠的生產許可證。北方邦的地下水十多年來一直處于危急水平。
