80% of current drug applications in China failed to meet analysis requirements
Considering past occurrences <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;2008_Chinese_milk_scandal" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;2008_Chinese_milk_scandal</a> and general behaviour in online market places (my last experience was that the product was advertised to be shipped from Germany (expect fast delivery), but arrived a month later from China) then it should not come as very big surprise (I am not saying that this is normal or acceptable, but that it is not very surprising).<p>My question is that what is the cause of this general fraudulent behaviour? Does it have some historical roots? Does it come from lack of actual functioning oversight?<p>Another anecdotal case: try asking for directions in China. Even when person does not know the correct directions, they do not mind to direct you, and when confronted, they refuse to admit that they do not know. Is this mindset result of constant fear of repressions, or it runs deeper into the history of the society (say it is also present in Taiwan?).<p>I am not accusing anybody in anything, I just would like to understand.
