the problem is that in most of these developing countries pesticide/ chemical regulations does not exist/ follow a safe and scientific pathway but rather it is a mess;

In my personal experience about GHS (Global Harmonization System) for pesticide/ chemical regulations, labeling, transportation etc., I realized that EPA is only considering the governmental side in developing countries.
