保护农民免受欺骗[1]

As core components of the machines are seriously worn after years of use, hazards lurk inside these shoddy commodities. They can cause fire, injury or death.

Producers of these fake home appliances are not necessarily illegal enterprises.

The fact they are sold in regular shops in tandem with genuine brands indicate these companies are also legally registered.

The problem lies in how they passed quality examinations to be granted a license to be sold in exclusive shops for the government subsidy scheme.

Solutions lie with local authorities.

近几年来，假的产品不断流入市场，尤其在农村地区，更是严重。

Manufacturers of shoddy and fake products are mostly small companies that contribute significantly to local revenues. This contribution is very important to the growth of the local economy, which matters greatly to officials' work performance.

The officials also attach great importance to the companies' employment of local workers.

Criteria to gauge local officials' administrative performances are divided into two categories - the so-called "hard" ones, such as economic development; and the "soft" ones, such as environment protection.

The first category is called "hard" because they are more tangible and instantly effective; the second group is "soft" because they need longer to manifest, usually longer than a local leader's tenure.
