Three foreign dairy producers, Wyeth, Beingmate and Meiji have been exempted from punishment. As the head of the Chinese price watchdog has explained, it’s because these companies have actively cooperated with the probe.

Xu Kunlin, Head of Price Supervision & Anti-Monopoly Bureau, NDRC, said, "In accordance with the anti-monopoly law, these companies have provided important evidence, actively cooperated in the investigation and carried out active self-rectification, then can be exempted from punishment."
