12. Even if you are correct, there are two societies with two cultures in play

I am not at all sure there is a way to save face in both countries.

The notion that people in the US do not care about "honor" or "face" flies in the face of current nationalistic trends in this nation.

I suspect an apology to US consumers for an apology to Chinese producers will not end up as satisfactory to either.
