Raid turns up low-quality China-made goods

A Chinese national identified as Chen said the goods had been imported legally with all the right taxes paid. However, the Consumer Protection Police Division declared that the goods were not correctly labelled – a violation that carries a year in prison and/or a Bt100,000 fine.
Though there were 10 other men at the site – nine Chinese and one Mon – no details of them facing legal action were provided.
Division commander Pol Maj-General Norrasak Hemnithi said the 10,000 or so items found were substandard and were worth about Bt100 million in the market. He said the goods did not pass industry standards and the division was cracking down on goods of such low quality.
All the goods have been confiscated.
Quoting Chen, police said the warehouse belonged to NK Co Ltd and was managed by a Thai man identified as Beer. The firm also exports dried fish and dried fruits.
