Chinese Babies Hungry for Foreign Milk

(1/24/2013) Four years ago, China had a huge scandal about adding carcinogens in the baby milk powder. Now the Chinese parents are buying baby milk powder crazily in Hong kong and Australia (through people traveling overseas) because they don't trust their Chines baby milk powder anymore. With such a huge demand (look at so many newborn babies in China), it empties the shelfs in HK & Australia. It also triggers some milk powder smuggling from New Zealand, which is a major milk powder exporting country. When New Zealand government announces that they will block illegal export of baby milk powder, the price of the NZ milk in China jumps immediately (news in Chinese).
