Some of the goods that are made in China for US consumption aren't
available in Chinese stores. In the larger cities there are *special*
stores that take both yaun and greenbacks. I bought one of my favorite
Canadian beers (Fin du Monde) at a *special*  (I've forgotten what
store they call them) one of the times I visited China.

Russia is doing what they can to win contracts also. The software for
the last product I helped develop was mostly written in Russia.
