The Global Piracy & Counterfeiting Consultants Blasts China For Its Toxic Drywall & For Being The World's Largest Counterfeiter
For years Americas Watchdog's Global Piracy & Counterfeiting Consultants has been warning the world about China, the fact it is the world's largest counterfeiter, and a nation with little to no regard for quality of the products it produces. In a Daily Telegraph of London article, the group was quoted as saying, "perhaps no one cares about people dying from counterfeit pharmaceuticals in Africa, but this will change when individuals start dying in large numbers in Los Angeles, New York, London or Tokyo." The group is now saying, "while we thought lethal counterfeit drugs or cigarettes would be the items that focused world attention on China as an untrustworthy trading partner, as it turns out, it was their exported toxic drywall building products that should give every nation in the world pause." The group says, "China is not a friend of the US or its Western allies; from backing the lunatics in Iran, to giving the murderers in Sudan a free pass, this country clearly has one focus--itself and the hell with the rest of the world." For more information please contact the Global Piracy & Counterfeiting Consultants at 866-714-6466, or contact the group via its web site at Http://GP-CC.Com. (PRWeb Jan 4, 2010)
