Mattel apologized to the Chinese for the toy recalls, saying the recalls were overbroad and did unnecessary damage to China's reputation. The Associated Press brings excerpts of articles recently put out by China’s state media:
‘’The apology, though delayed, should help dispel the
suspicion American customers harbor against Chinese-made products and
clean up the stain the recalls left on the innocent Chinese workers who
make a living doing honest labor,'’ the official English-language China
Daily newspaper reported.
The state-run Guangzhou Daily said in an editorial Monday that Mattel’s
apology was a little late ‘’but at least it redressed injustice against
toys made in China.'’
But the paper added: ‘’It is still too early to say we are happy.'’
Um... what more can I say?
