Agreed ..This Chinese Manager at least had a conscience -- I feel bad for him in that respect.He was ruined, and at least from the articles I read on him, he was a decent boss otherwise (he was guilty of trusting a friend who cheated him).Look at all the American CEOs who get away with stuff. *sigh*

Why are people making a joke out of this?Someone died because of buying falsely-labelled lead-free paint from a Chinese supplier.This could have happened to anybody, whether their factories are located in China or United States, if they purchase falsely-labelled raw materials from China.You never agreed the CEO of pet food factories in the United States be hanged. These are the dangers Hong Kong enterpreneurs faced when investing and setting up factories in China.<a class="user" href="http://theawakeninghercate.blogspot.com/2007/08/hk-toy-maker-hangs-himself-over-us.html">http://theawakeninghercate.blogspot.com/2007/08/hk-toy-maker-hangs-himself-over-us.html</a>

He's right. If you try to comprehend what he's saying, you know those reasons are enough to boycott the country. If your brain is too small to comprehend, by all means, continue whining.

Sooo, rather than hang in, help his fellow Chinese business people to learn from his mistake, and improve the products they export to the west, he has chosen the path of cowardice! What a waist!!
