A South African court has blocked the government from buying 11 million Chinese condoms, saying they are too small, a newspaper reported Friday.
The finance ministry had awarded a contract to a firm called Siqamba Medical, which planned to buy the Phoenurse condoms from China, the Beeld newspaper said.
A rival firm, Sekunjalo Investments Corporation, turned to the High Court in Pretoria after losing the bid, arguing that their condoms were 20 percent larger than the Chinese ones.
Judge Sulet Potterill blocked the deal with Siqamba, ruling that the condoms were too small, made from the wrong material, and were not approved by the World Health Organisation, the paper said.
South Africa has more HIV infections than any country in the world, with 5.38 million of its 50 million people carrying the virus.

Ancient Chinese proverb: Size does not matter if one prematurely peters out.
With a population of 1.3 billions, what do those little pricks know about condom anyway?!
Knowing the Chinese, they'll just keep "pecking" away at the competition with more cheap products!

How Long is a Chinaman...

You mean gay porn stars?
I’m sure they will “rise” to the competition!
Too small for the entire population or just the Africans?
LMAO
Must have been a hard choice.
That explains why you don’t see too many American women hooked up with Chinese guys...
(but you do see a lot the other way)
"It's TWWWUUUEEE!!!"
Takes the pressure off of Irishmen.
For the Chinese the climax of the war will come too soon.
Reminds me of an old joke.
They were labeled Texas rejects.
National disgrace!
Sometimes there is a reason there is a stereotype.
Taxpayer rands at work.
Given the above,I’m at a loss for words.
