'Made in China' Criticism Unwise
Adjust font size:

"Recently some foreign media have been attacking 'Made in China' products as problematic. They fail to realize that in bashing the 'Made in China' brand, they are, in effect, damaging the interests of their home countries," said Assistant Minister of Commerce Wang Chao in response to recent negative reports on the quality of products manufactured in China.

Wang Chao explained that over 50 percent of the "Made in China" products are for processing trade. That means all these products are manufactured in line with the requirements of overseas clients and international standards. In terms of exporter composition, over 58 percent of products are exported by foreign owned enterprises. The "Made in China" brand is built amidst fierce competition among state-owned enterprises, private enterprises, and foreign-invested firms. In this sense, "Made in China" also implies "made by the world".

"China delivers US$100 million worth of goods to the rest of the world every hour," Vice Minister of Commerce Gao Hucheng told a news conference on Thursday. He believes that "made in China" products play a crucial role on the global consumer market. If most goods manufactured in China are unreliable and of inferior quality, it would be impossible for the "Made in China" brand to go this far and enjoy top reputation to date.
