China vows export crackdown amid milk crisis
BEIJING (Reuters) - China vowed to stop toxic milk from reaching processors and export markets after tainted infant powder made more than 54,000 children sick in a scandal that has mired the nation's reputation in a fresh crisis.

Milk powder laced with the industrial chemical melamine has led to nearly 13,000 Chinese infants being admitted to hospital, 104 in a serious condition with kidney stones and agonizing complications. Four have died in past months.

....

Outside the mainland, two more children in Hong Kong were found to be sick after consuming toxic Chinese milk powder, bringing the total there to four.

The city's health department said the two new cases involved Hong Kong children living on the mainland who were diagnosed with kidney stones. Both are in stable condition after treatment.

Germany's biggest retailer Metro AG withdrew Sanlu milk powder products from two of its 37 wholesale stores in China and recalled them from customers on Tuesday.

Meanwhile, Swiss Nestle SA and French Group Danone SA said their milk products in China and Hong Kong were safe. Hershey Co said it does not use milk from China in any of its products, including those sold in the country.

Melamine, which can be used to cheat quality checks, has also been found in candy, buns and carton milk sold to other countries and regions, unleashing fear in markets already shaken by a string of "made-in-China" scandals last year.

But with the scenes of sick infants and details of a government cover-up alarming Chinese citizens and foreign consumers, officials vowed a shake-up.
