Der Ansturm/Stampede!

Made in China

"Made in China" ist zum Schimpfwort geworden. Als ich letztes Jahr einen Tagesausflug nach Budapest gemacht habe, hat eine Frau in einem Touri-laden mehrmals stolz angekuendigt, "Die Waren sind nicht in China hergestellt." Ja, zugegeben, die Chinesen fertigen nicht immer die Hochwertigsten Sachen an, aber dafuer sie sind billig. ;-) LOL Ich wuerde allerdings keine chinesische Milchprodukte kaufen wollen.

Habt ihr von der Tragoedie am Black Friday gehoert? Ein Walmart Mitarbeiter wurde vzu Tode getrampelt, denn die Kunden wollten ihre Schnaeppchen jagen. Wie traurig!
=================================
"Made in China" has become a bad word. Last year when I was in Budapest, Hungary for a day trip, one of the shopkeepers in a tourist shop proudly proclaimed multiple times, "These goods were not made in China. All hand made here in Hungary."
Yes, I admit that Chinese factories don't always produce the most high quality products, but they're cheap. ;-) However, I wouldn't trust their milk products though or their food really.

Shoppers on Black Friday can be animals. Have you heard about the poor Walmart employee who got trampled to death by customers hunting for bargains? Sad state of humanity

"Made in China" ...
May I share the following little story: I bought shorts in a market in China Town of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. To convince me, the shop man insisted that they are orginally "Made in China" (read "not Vietnamese grap").
