 BEIJING (AP) - The United States should not use a few tainted Chinese products as an excuse to smear the country's reputation of being a reliable source of safe exports, a state-run newspaper said Thursday.
The editorial in the China Daily came amid worldwide worries over a growing list of dangerous or shoddy Chinese products that a number of countries are rejecting or banning, including toothpaste, juice, fish and toys containing toxins.
While officials have stepped up efforts to refine and strengthen regulations, as well as crack down on violators, they have also been quick to point out that China has had a good track record in the past and is not the only exporter with problems.
