Statement of Professor Daniel C.K. Chow

COUNTERFEITING IN CHINA
I. Introduction

In terms of size, scope, and magnitude, counterfeiting in China is
considered by many to the most serious counterfeiting problem in world
history. (As used here, counterfeiting refers to the unauthorized use
of trademarks owned by another on identical or similar goods.) A
recent study by the PRC State Council Research and Development Center
reported that in 2001 the PRC economy was flooded with between $19-$24
billion worth of counterfeit goods. Brand owners in China estimate
that 15 to 20% of all well-known brands in China are counterfeit and
estimate their losses to be in the tens of billions of dollars.
Counterfeiting is estimated to now account for approximately 8% of
China’s gross domestic product.

China is also a leading exporter of counterfeit products to other
countries in Asia, Europe, and the United States. In 2003, China
accounted for 66% or over $62 million of the $94 million of all
counterfeit and infringing goods seized by the US Customs Service at
ports of entry into the United States. Mid-year figures in 2004
indicate that seizures are sharply higher with $64 million seized in
the first half of 2004 alone. An ominous development is that beginning
in 2004, exports of counterfeits from China to the United States and
other parts of the world may begin to increase significantly for the
foreseeable future.

Some might call it China-Feit© Products -aka- China-Crap©

Recently had an 'issue with one of those Magic Bullet Blender
that we bought about two years ago on Amazon.Com.

We call the 800# and once the Manufacture got the Model
Number and some other 'info' off the Power-Head Motor :
We were told that it was a Counterfeit Item most likely
'made-in-china' that was mainly made of a poorer quality
and thinner plastic.
-fwiw- One of the Plastic Top-Containers had broken pieces
of plastic after several uses.

China needs to get it's act together and stop the China-Crap©
-aka- China-Feit© Products

Made-in-China is becoming more than a Joke
-meaning- Made-in-China : Danger It Kills !

Isn't that one of those kit blenders - 70 pieces of stuff for

Not quite right, DP. The products you mention above are mostly ASSEMBLED
in America. Typically, the higher tech, higher 'cost of assembly' items
(engines, trannies) are made in their home country.

Oh, don't forget that the profit from your items above flow right to
Germany, Korea and Japan, not here. They only built a few plants here
because they had to -- for political reasons, a sop* to the gullible.

* From the Merriam-Webster dictionary:

sop: a conciliatory or propitiatory bribe, gift, or gesture

That is, if you can find one that isn't counterfeit.
