China Honey, You Are An Adulterer. Can You Stand By YOUR Labels?
Posted on August 29, 2009A couple of Chinese "executives" were recently found guilty in Seattle Federal Court of having imported and distributed adulterated (well it at least sounds like adulterer) and mislabeled honey into the United States. The honey contained "ciproflaxin, an antibiotic that is used to fight bacterial infections but in rare cases can cause tendon damage and is barred from the food supply...
Manufacturing In China. Because There Are 1.3 Billion People There.
Posted on August 26, 2009I expected the routine this morning from a Wall Street Journal article entitled "LG Display Plans Plant in China." I expected it would say that LG was going to be manufacturing in China either to save costs or, more likely, to diversify its manufacturing...
Foreign Corrupt Practices Act in China. September 3, 2009, Teleconference.
Posted on August 25, 2009Stafford Publications is putting on a teleconference on the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA) in China. Before I talk about that though, there is one thing I have to get out of the way.

China: Where East Eats West.
Posted on August 25, 2009Whirlwind China entrepreneur and friend Sam Goodman has a great and blissfully short book out on how to do business in China. I say blissfully short not because I did not like his book (because I did), but because its shortness is one of its strengths...
China's Big Political Picture Writ Small For Business.
Posted on August 23, 2009I am not generally a fan of extrapolating the way a country conducts its politics to the way its enterprises conduct its businesses even in China where so many businesses are government owned.

China Food Safety. Don't Blame Legal.
Posted on August 22, 2009Thought provoking post over at TwoFish's Blog, entitled, "Best and the worst ? The Sanlu Settlement."

China: No Brands No Cry. What Does Peoria Say?
Posted on August 22, 2009Since my using references to Bob Marley songs seems to play so well (see here and here)..... Anyway, just read an excellent and blunt blog post on Chinese brands over at the perpetually insightful Silicon Hutong Blog, entitled, "Brand Reality Check." The post uses a Tom Doctoroff article in AdAge (subscription required) as the starting point for arguing China will "not be producing a bevy of global brands at any time in the near future...
The King Of Diplomacy On China-US Relations.

China's Rio Tinto Arrests. A Rapid Fire Historical Perspective.
Posted on August 19, 2009Sometimes big events can be so complicated, controversial and unwieldy, there is hardly any point in reading current reports because they are likely to be so biased and/or inaccurate as to be of no value. In those instances, particularly when the underlying topic is not of huge interest to me, I generally pretty much stop reading articles on it and just wait for the dust to settle...
Hiring In China. The Seminar. September 24, 2009. Seattle.

China's Food Chain. Nobody Trusts Nobody.
Posted on August 17, 2009The Eileen Eats blog did an excellent, though very disquieting, post on the state of Chinese food. The post is entitled, "Food Safety? Can?t let your guard down," and it has the following money quote: Hung Huang, chief executive of the China Interactive Media Group in China, said recently in an article in the New York Times that China as a nation of food lovers is going on a diet...
