Since early March this year,the outcry concerning the quality of Chinese export commodities, from cosmetics to foodstuffs to toys, has been deafening,particularly from certain congressmen, presidential candidates and themedia in the United States. Tom Plate,a professor at UCLA, and Mei Xinyu,a research fellow with the Research Academy under the Chinese Ministry of Commerce,however,point out that an ineffective U.S.quality inspection system must shoulder some of the responsibility for the current safety scare.
