A significant portion of chicken and pork meat sold in local supermarkets is contaminated with bacteria, some of which could be harmful to humans, a new report by a UK-based World Animal Protection has revealed.

In the findings, released on Wednesday, the organisation says the bulk of the contaminated meat on sale is under the retailers' own brands compared with cuts from suppliers.
