Global corporations, local standards

Kanika Datta in Business Standard writes about the Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) expose on bottled water industry.
She focuses on the MNC's who provide the safe and pure drinking water but do not follow the standards which they follow in Europe and the US. Most of these companies always try to get away with just following within the local standards even when they have the best technology and standards in other parts of the world.

This is a pity and the Indian and emerging markets should have tougher laws and work against these guys and the MNCs shouldstop advertising that they have the best products etc.
