Quality conscious another corporate cheat...

"Indian goods dont have quality then how would germans buy it, how would Americans buy it.?" "Sir, after .... company sent its good to US, the US company returned the goods and cancelled the order due to poor quality". "Indians dont have any honesty they cheat in quality then how could they come up in the world".

I dont know how true were these but these were the common complaints by self professed know all uncles during their discussions in any gathtering. I used to be school going kid at that time and i would carried over by those talks and started to feel bad about the quality of Indian products and the dishonesty in Indian psyche.

Now only i can clearly understand those were mere bullshits.

The US runs into billions and billions of dollar deficit in trading with China. The "quality conscious" US has insatiable hunger for the filthy goods from china.

Never a day goes by , that shatters the world about the poor quality and the cheating by the chinese comapnies.

Barbies recalled, mattel toys recalled, this is recalled ,that is recalled, recall recall is the only news the business section of wahingtonpost newspaper carries almost dialy.

But why still the trade deficit with China is increasing if the US is sooooooooooo quality conscious?? The lack of quality never seems to threaten chinese goods!!! Kids,babies ,infants get killed by the great quality chinese products but still nothing happens to the chinese exports not even a small dent and dint.

What else could be the reason other than the corporate greed? All the US corporations procure directly from china. They just want windfall profit they dont bother about the consumers.

The hapless US consumers , who in india are regarded as the greatest quality connosuiers, lap up any garbage thrown at them from china even if it causes them to die!!!

There is no sharp scathing attack by newspapers on these corporations procuring goods by the billions from china.

The newspapers just report about the recalls but they dont question the corporate policy. The recalls happen only after few victims ,usually the kids, surface in the news. Probably the newspapers and the US congress would dig out themselves of the slumber only after 1000s of deaths and destructions probably on the scale of katrina.

Then they would squabble among themselves and pass a bill restricting the greed of US corporations.

Indians are more quality conscious than the rest of the world then how else could you explain the fact that India is the only country that runs trade surplus against china. Not only that the common refrain of the average maamis and mammas about the quality of chinese goods is well evident again from their discussions just like they used to have when i was kid about indian goods but this time it is more tangiable to me and even to those know all maamas.
