Chinese condoms too small for South Africa

[min0 lee]

When it comes to condoms in South Africa, size matters.

A South African court on Friday halted the shipment of 11 million female condoms from China, saying they were too small, made from the wrong material, and not approved by the World Health Organization, according to AFP.

Judge Sulet Potterill of the Pretoria high court axed a decision by the country???s finance minister to award a contract to a firm called Siqamba Medical, which planned to buy the Phoenurse-brand condoms from China.

The ruling was sparked by rival firm, Sekunjalo Investments Corporation. Officials from the company went to court after losing a bid to supply condoms that were 20 percent larger than the Chinese ones.

The judge said the matter was urgent because the distribution of condoms is vital to curb the spread of HIV/AIDS and to prevent unwanted pregnancies.

The court also found that the Chinese condoms are made from polyurethane and not the government-approved nitrile rubber.

Siqamba Medical was to deliver the condoms by Aug. 31 of next year.

According to the CIA World Factbook, South Africa has more people living with HIV/AIDS infections than any country in the world, with 5.6 million of its nearly 50 million people carrying the virus.

But it's for female condoms, are they suggesting South African women have gaping vulvas? Or that the men drive too deep?

I used a couple condoms I bought in Thailand and they didn't roll all the way down and choked my dick like shrink wrap....

yeah, I wish those damn Chinese condoms would stop slipping off. I mean breaking, yeah that's it. I wish they would quit breaking like magnums always do.

That's what they get for buying from China. The joke is on them. But we haven't learned that, yet, so why should some other country? People act all shocked when they get fucked by the Chinese.

The Chinese steal intellectual property, engage on both covert and overt industrial espionage but we still want to do business with them. Why? Because some assholes want to make a couple extra bucks.

Who in the hell would wear a condom on their penis or in their vagina that was made in China?
No offense but they make cheap products and follow no regulations.

That could explain why there's so many off them.

This, right here. If their birth control worked they wouldn't be a full one fifth of the world's population.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't most of our base powders manufactured in China?

A small list of what they bring to us.

1. Pet food contaminated with melamine.

• Toothpaste containing diethylene glycol

• A huge recall on Thomas & Friends toys coated with lead paint.

• Unsafe tires that need to be recalled.

No shit, and I bet they managed to somehow include lead in the manufacturing of those condomes, too!

 

[oufinny]

A whole lot of crap comes out of China, condoms included it seems.
