Chinese Invasion

Spain
December 29, 2006 9:47am CST
The other day i went to the market in Europe and saw that the store was full of chineese toys, I have come to know that there was a big toy industry in Spain which has closed down due to the chineese mkt invasion. Why di u think that the chineese toys are so cheep? Also do u think that some curbs can be put to stop this as this is leading to unemployment in some countries?

the Chinese products are flooding the world in cheap prices not just in toys but almost all industries.. they have very cheap labor and can sell/export at prices other countries can not compete with. it's good for the consumer but often their products are below standards i really don't know what should be done about it but many countries are putting restrictions and higher taxes on Chinese imports as much as the free trade agreements allow them. Maybe more people should buy their countries products even if a bit more expensive to help their own economy that must reflect on their life at the end.

yes i fully agrree with you. Most of the time the cheap products are sub standard. people should decide between quality and price.Unfortunatly people do get tempted with the cheap price and go for the chinese goods.
