China babies die âfrom fake milkâ
Dozens of Chinese babies are said to have died from malnutrition in the past year after being fed fake or inferior-quality baby milk powders. Prime Minister Wen Jiabao said makers of the products would be severely punished, the China Daily paper said. State officials have been sent to the city of Fuyang, in Anhui province, to investigate further. Correspondents say the case highlights the widespread problem of counterfeit foodstuffs and medicines in China. (cont.)
Strange how all that state sanctioned intellectual property theft and product counterfeiting can come back to bite you on the ass big time. I feel sorry for the parents and wonder if any of them will ever know enough to blame their corrupt politburo for condoning institutionalized fraud.
