But this week, environmental group Greenpeace says it found many herbs purchased from Chinese and Hong Kong retail stores contain alarming levels of harmful pesticides. One herb, a sample of San Qi flower purchased from popular chain Beijing Tong Ren Tang, contained over 500 times the EU safety limit of a restricted pesticide. Another herb contained over 100 times that limit, according to the report. Beijing Tong Ren Tang did not return calls for comment. Of the 65 herbs sampled by Greenpeace, 51 contained pesticides with 26 having chemicals classified as "extremely or highly hazardous" by the World Health Organization, it said.Greenpeace: Of 65 herbs tested, 26 contained "highly hazardous" pesticidesGreenpeace: One herb contained over 500 times European safe limit of pesticideNEW: Hong Kong Department of Health says it is "concerned about the findings"Scientist says pesticides do not necessarily pose risk; boiling herbs can help

PROBLEM: (CNN) China has passed a controversial law imposing new regulations on foreign nongovernmental organizations and charitable groups. The more than 7,000 foreign NGOs operating in China will have to submit to police supervision and declare their sources of funding. While Chinese officials say regulation is long overdue in this sector, U.S. officials and human rights groups have criticized the law, saying it amounts to a crackdown on civil society. "The new law will have severe consequences for freedom of expression, peaceful assembly, and association, which are already sharply curtailed under existing laws and policies," Amnesty International said. The U.S. National Security Council urged China to respect the rights and freedoms of all those who make up civil society, including protecting the ability of foreign NGOs to operate in China.New law will restrict activities of foreign NGOs in ChinaChina says regulation is long overdueActivists warn law could have "serious consequences for freedom of expression"
