i'm made in hk...

下晝睇《爆谷殺人狂》,令晚上本來只屬一般的《一期一會》更覺好睇,後者又令返屋企聽本來已屬經典的陳百強精選更覺好聽;生活總是一場又一場比較,誰知最好的是否都錯過了?
倫敦等轉機時赫然見有間 Ted Baker,睇中件返工 vest 嫌貴冇買,一來去歐洲買件 made in HK 覺得唔知點咁,二來冇理由未到巴黎就咁豪嘛(都成 50+ euro),返港後先知原來海運都有間,仲要減緊價,點知同款同色竟然係 made in China,即係洋人用港貨,港人用國貨?
呢招同 brand 唔同 product of origin 頗為詭異,唔只買衫買鞋買袋,連 grocery shopping 都有魚目混珠:

盒裝維他奶 - made in HK ~~ 罐裝 - made in PRC
公仔蝦肉燒賣 - made in HK ~~ 公仔蝦餃 - made in PRC
金妹牌脆皮芝士腸 160g - made in HK ~~ 454g - made in PRC
唔係歧視國貨(學明哥話齋,五香肉丁一定要係水仙花牌啦),不過呢堆國產香港品牌蒙混過關真係同
made in Italy by Chinese 不遑多樣,politics of passing is an art more than a tactic...

Well, recently there has been a public outcry in N. America against products imported from PRC. People here are pretty outragd by the finding of tainted toothpaste and counterfeit Colgate, both of which contain diethylene glycol, a chemical that's hazardous to health. This is certainly bad news, as some U.S. idiots may trigger a series of protectionist measures against legitimate Chinese products. Having that said, PRC should raise safety and quality standards and strengthen enforcement practices to better protect consumer interest. Afterall, PRC is a member of the WTO now, there are fundamental safety and trade obligations that cannot be ignored....
