"Families File Suit in Chinese Tainted Milk Scandal"
Continuing with the story on the poisoned milk from the other day, I found in today's New York Times, that the families involved filed a lawsuit on Friday. Two hundred thirteen children and their families are have filed. The parents are all asking to be compensated to varying degrees, totaling $5.2 million. This case is very rare. Layers in China do not usually file class-action product liability cases.
I can understand the parents of these children wanting to bring this case to court. The poisoned milk may cause kidney damage in their children. and they want the milk company to suffer consequences for their actions and they want to receive some compensation for their own suffering.

What do you think the government will do? I mean the man mentioned in class committed suicide, so what else can the government do? And is it just Chinese families that were effected? If so, the government may not be so sympathetic or even allow the lawsuit to go through. It will be interesting to see how this fold out for the Chinese government.
