Formalin in White Rabbit candies
Nooo!!
White rabbit candies have long been a favorite of mine since I was a kid. Now, we get this news yesterday that the same candies (imported from China, of course) contain formalin in them. Importers and local retailers have already recalled the product from the market.
Just a couple of weeks ago, Japan has recalled toothpaste (the kind used in toothbrush-toothpaste kits in hotels) that has an ingredient used in anti-freeze. The toothpaste was made in China.
Oh yeah, last night, on CNN, I saw a feature regarding forced labor in China. Young boys and gaunt young men were being coerced into working for 16 hours a day. The perpetrators were eventually tried and sentenced...one of them got the death sentence.
These are just a few reasons why I adamantly refuse to believe that China will be the next economic super power. No way. No matter what Jax says about it. China is not Japan, and will never be...unless it cleans up its act, big time.
Here is an interesting read from MSN.com: Broken China - A dysfunctional nation
