1 million fake medical masks arrested

In the Bangkok suburb of Samut Prakan, police raided
(https://bit.ly/3tKkl1Y) a warehouse where they found 1 million
face masks that were labelled as being from Japan when in actuality
they were produced and shipped from China. The economic crime
division of the police uncovered the Chinese masks, with an
estimated value of about 3 million baht, during a raid in
a warehouse in the Phraeksa area of the province.
The police busted the warehouse with the counterfeit Chinese masks
that were labelled as though they were from Japan. They found that
some of the masks even had exercise labels from Japan on them
despite the fact that they were actually imported from China.
The importers likely faked the labelling and import details of the
masks to make cheap Chinese knockoffs appear to be more valuable
Japanese products. Police believe that the face masks that were
manufactured in China were of inferior quality with substandard
materials. The labelling from Japan was likely fake so that they
could be passed off as higher quality merchandise with Japanese
approval that could fetch a much higher price when sold.
No arrests tied to the fake Chinese masks were officially announced
at the time of the raid yesterday, the investigation is ongoing and
prosecution and charges are likely imminent.
