China's product quality watchdog says the qualification rate of domestically-produced products has exceeded 90 percent for the first time this past year.
The General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine says of the over 25 thousand products it looked at, over 92 percent of them met quality standards.
Mei Jianhua is the director of the Administration's Quality Supervision Department.
"The qualification rate of domestic products has exceeded 90 percent for the first time since China started to check product quality 30 years ago, which shows that the quality of domestic products has been improving gradually. Meanwhile, China strengthened quality supervision of food products in 2014, and during the survey we found that 98.5 percent of 7,451 food products reached the national standards, which has helped promote the overall qualification rate to a higher level."
But at the same time, the Administration says other areas are still struggling.
One out of every two energy-saving engines inspectors reviewed failed to meet standards.
Furniture designed for children, glasses, cell phones and soft toys also missed the mark a lot.
