Default Re: TianZi Nature's Products - Exciting Possibilities

Let me first say I don't know enough about TianZi to comment.

Having done business with China & Taiwan over the years. I think you have to remember that this is a emerging country. Credit markets, brand names and being an reliable source are coming into importance.

These are people that have been poor, have emerged from Communism and have been screwed by their government, other companies and everyone else.

It just makes you more careful about who you do business with and how the deal happens. And there will be some that'll be more than willing to take advantage of you.

On the other hand, I have regular Chinese vendors I business with that really care my business, going the extra mile (or kilometer) to earn my business.

Last thing I always keep in mind about politics in China is the government represents its own interest and the people are expected to follow.
