China milk boss admits delay in reporting danger
The former boss of the company at the heart of China's tainted milk scandal has pleaded guilty to selling dodgy products and admitted she delayed reporting the danger. The former head of Sanlu Group, told a court that she was informed in May that children were falling ill from Sanul's products but she did not alert authorities until August. Maybe she did not said because of money and because of that i think that she's very selfish. The former head of Sanlu Group and three other company officials stood trial in the northern city of Shi jia zhuang over a scandal that killed six children, sickened nearly 3 hundred thousand, and prompted a worldwide recall of goods containing Chinese milk.

Tough sentences in China over huge piracy ring
A Chinese court has issued tough sentences to members of a huge software counterfeiting ring, which distributed more than two billion dollars' worth of fake Microsoft goods, the company said. The court in the southern city of Shenzhen and sentenced 11 people to jail terms of up to six and a half years for making high quality counterfeit software that was sold in 36 countries. I think they should be sentenced to jail for a longer time. The illegal syndicate, based in the southern province of Guangdong, pirated versions of 19 of the company's most popular products, which were produced in at least 11 languages.
