The objectives of this study are to review on the issue regarding GM Crop in Asia country and to extend knowledge on issues of commercialization in genetically modified crops for better precaution to the future.

In Asia, because of the varied cultures, issues concerning the use of genes derived from animals arouse much emotion for religious and diet choice reasons. This is because many Asian producers and farmers are small-scale, there is also concern about technology dependency and to whom the benefits accrue.
