Chinese condoms too small for South Africans
Please pardon the ' length ', but size matters.
A South African court has blocked the government from buying 11 million Chinese
condoms, saying they are too small. The finance ministry had awarded a contract
to a firm called Siqamba Medical, which planned to buy the Phoenurse condoms
from China. A rival firm, Sekunjalo Investments Corporation, turned to the High
Court in Pretoria after losing the bid, arguing that their condoms were 20 percent
larger than the Chinese ones. Judge Sulet Potterill blocked the deal with Siqamba,
ruling that the condoms were too small, made from the wrong material, and were
not approved by the World Health Organisation. South Africa has more HIV infections
than any country in the world, with 5.38 million of its 50 million people carrying the virus.
So go Longggggggg and invest in Church & Dwight & Co., maker of Trojan brand.
