Comment on "Cashing in on the China brand" (China Daily, Oct 30)

Branding, marketing and good products can weave magic for companies, including those from Asia, in the market. A case in point is Japan, whose products in the 1950s were associated with poor quality and copycat designs. But in later decades, Japan transformed itself into one of the finest makers of electronic products, vehicles and other goods.

So there is no reason why Chinese products cannot or will not enjoy similar success and recognition in the future.
