In 2008, the baby powder produced by SANLU make kids died in China. The product SANLU produced containing melamine that was 5,125 times higher than the European Union safety limits. As businesses, they should not only focus on how to max the profits, they also have to take responsibilities for consumers. Add chemicals in the baby powder leads to kidney stones, especially among babies can be defined as immoral behavior. Besides, Chinese people don’t trust the market since these event, they choose to buy baby powder from other countries. This leads to the shortage of baby powder worldwide. (Most Chinese travel to other countries just for buying baby powder.)

This also can reflect the problem within the Chinese government. The melamine containing in the product was higher than the safety limits, how can the quality control department didn’t find it out? From my point of view, the only possible reason is that the head of the SANLU and the head of the quality control department make a compromise about this immoral thing. As a government, they have to think of their citizen’s safety in order to rebuild their reputation. As the company, they have to make high-quality products to build customers’ trust.
