Pressure needed

Recent media reports about toxic textiles, blankets, toxic cough syrup made in China highlights the need for Western governments and corporations to put pressure on China to improve its health, environment and industrial regulations.

The world corporations that take advantage of China's cheap labour have a responsibility to ensure that the goods produced are safe.

At present, only the work of dedicated individuals and enlightened liberal governments ensure that these matters are brought to the attention of the general public.
