Everything is Made in China Made in china means products are manufactured in the mainland of China. People who live in China feel that all goods are made in China is a normal thing because the Chinese people do not really know almost everything in foreign countries also is made in China. Because of the cheap labors and China's large manufacturing industry, “made in China” becomes one of the most recognizable labels in the world today. “Made in China” has a huge range of goods from clothing to electronics (Garten). World economy is becoming so dependent on China as an industrial lifeline. China's importance to global manufacturing will resemble Saudi Arabia's position in world oil markets. As a result, there are more and more goods are made in China. Some people like goods which are made in China because these goods are cheaper. On the other hand, not all people think that goods are made in China is good thing. Just as the editorial cartoon I found, the editorial cartoon describes a broken plane which made by wood, and a soldier say: I told you we should not have bought those airplanes with the “made in China” sticker. Unquestionably, this editorial cartoon ridicules made in China means low quality. Moreover, all goods are made in China also has some negative influences for other economic facets. So the question here is so many goods are made in China is a good thing or a bad thing. Too many goods are made in China have many disadvantages. The main problem about made in China is that goods which are made in China are low quality. Some people even say that: China is notorious for manufacturing goods with a higher rate of failure or defective products. For example, On August 2, 2007, Mattel's Fisher-Price subsidiary recalled almost a million Chinese-made toys, including Dora the Explorer and Sesame Street toys because of potential hazards from parts of the toys which were colored using lead-based paint (yahoo. News). Low quality goods are easily broken, so people have to change these goods very often. In fact the expense is increase. The reason why the goods are low quality is because those Chinese labors come from a background of limited education. Usually, these labors simple can manufacture goods very fast, but they do not have a high skill to manufacture precision goods. Secondly, because of Chinese labors are so cheap, so it has a serious influence to other countries’ labors. In other words, manufacturing use Chinese labors to manufacture goods rather than other countries labors. It will increase of other countries’ unemployment rate. Go further and say, it will have a negative influence for economy. More and more people are unemployed, so they do not have enough money to buy things. As a result, the economy is becoming more unprosperous. On the other hand, everything is made in China also is bad for Chinese environment. All companies build a lot of factories in China. These dense factories make a lot of industrial waste. These industrial wastes have seriously polluted the air and rivers. Air quality in urban areas is deteriorating with each passing day, and people’s health is greatly endangered by the polluted air and water. Nowadays twenty percent of Chinese cities are seriously polluted. (Zhiquan). Chinese environment right now is very different with fifteen years ago. For example, when I was in primary school, my hometown’s sky was full of stars dancing and twinkling. They were so bright and so close that I felt as if I could reach up and grab one. However, right now I cannot even see moon in the sky at night in my hometown. There are always some dirty fog in the sky and block out everything. Lots of goods are made in China also have some advantages. Because of cheap labors, goods are usually cheap if they are made in China. Some goods are expendable. Cloth is a classic example. Many people like to change their clothes every day, so they need a lot of clothes. Many people buy new clothes every season and every year. They do not care about quality of the clothes because they may only wear the clothes only two months. They want cheap more than everything. Clothes are much cheaper if they are made in China than they are made in Italian, so lots of people gain from cloth is made in China. Another example is food. There are a lot of low incomes people need cheap food to exist. Moreover, cost of living significantly less, more American people can enjoy things that used to be considered luxury items. For example, a Sony 42 Plasma TV had a MSRP of $7999.00 in 2002. Today 52 Sony TV with a free Blu-Ray DVD Player for about $1500, and Costco is selling an off-brand ProScan 40 LCD set for $499.00. (Logical republican). Secondly, everything is made in China is good for other countries’ environment. Because many companies put their factories in China, so the damage of industrial waste is lower in other countries. Thirdly, Chinese employees gain from things are made in China. There are lots of foreign companies go to China, and these companies create hundreds of job opportunities. For instance, foreign companies create job opportunities ten times than fifteen years ago in Shen Zhen city (Guang Dong news). Another benefit is that there is substantial capital inflow into China. In fact, China has led developing countries in direct foreign investment for eight consecutive years, with an inflow of more than US$40 billion of international capital annually. This really stimulates the growth of Chinese businesses. The growth of Chinese businesses stimulates Chinese economy. All these make Chinese GDP steady-state growth. As a Chinese, I am proud that everything is made in China. It is true that many goods which are made in China are low quality, and some of goods even are phony. All these low quality or phony goods exist because they have market. For example, there are many people want to have a Hermas, but they do not want spend several thousand US dollar to buy a Hermas. A phony Hermas solves the problem perfectly. The Hermas Company does not even need to worry about this because these people will never buy a real Hermas. A significant benefit is that the cheap Chinese labors reduce the cost of production, so manufacturers could reduce selling price. That means customers can buy goods in a lower price. As a result, more and more people can enjoy things that used to be considered luxury items. The most important reason why I like goods are made in China is because Chinese people gain from these. Because of the manufacturers build a lot of factors in China, there are more job opportunities for people who from a background of limited education. Moreover, these foreign manufacturers bring a substantial capital to China. The capital is very helpful for Chinese development. Nowadays, the overall living standards of the Chinese people have greatly improved. All these good things are base on “made in China”, so I think everything is made in China is a good thing.
. All in all, although many people think that goods are made in China means goods are low qualities, some people think most goods are made in China will cause rising rates of unemployment, and eventually hurt other countries’ economy. I think everything is made in China is a good thing because it can reduce cost of living, rise Chinese employment, and promote Chinese overall living standards. I expect that China is not only making things, but also can invent things. I expect that I can see a sticker shows “invented in China” someday in the future
