   You can’t. China makes its own rules as they go along, change rules as they come into question and just generally want to rule the world. Just look at recent happenings.

   It’s quite difficult actually. You may contact trading agents or do business with Hong Kong companies as they are more reliable.

   Forget about China!

   Go for India or Veitnam. How about Sri Lanka? The Indian speak English.

   There are several ways to deal with these. I’ve been working as buyers in Asia for many years. 1. work with a Hong Kong company. rules in HK are stricter. 2. work with a USA company with offices in Asia. USA company must follow USA laws. You have recourses. There are a few more options. You may think your cost goes up but actually not really.

   Actually, fraud problems should be better now. Chinese government is cracking down on frauds, etc. China is trying to become a member of the WTO. It is also really who you deal with in China.

   Vietnam may be possible but the infrastructure is not quite there yet. India is the same and not as good as China. In a few more years, Vietnam and India may be better.

   The point is the buyer is buying from a not reliable supplier, how to avoid bad suppliers:

   1. do not trust B2B web or other internet ,online information too much, need to be filtered by yourself,
   2.If you can afford, on-site audit is a must; if you are a small business, try to get an agent to do this for you.
   3.Buy quality products not buy cheap products, do not trust very very low prices.

   Tks!
