Crackdown to target makers of fake products: Zhang Mao
Authorities overseeing the market place will implement new regulations this year to more effectively impose the strictest punishment on violators found guilty of the production and selling of fake or substandard goods, Zhang Mao, minister in charge of the State Administration for Market Regulation said on Tuesday.
China will establish systems to subject such violators to more severe punishment, including hefty fines and compensation for consumers, Zhang said. Violators will have all fake or substandard products identified, confiscated and destroyed, he said.
A whistle blower system will be established to more effectively deter such violations, he added.
