Dumping of undesirable products from 1st world countries into 3rd world
countries is a very common occurence and very serious problem. Those products
are usually given to people who have no way of knowing what it is they are
being given (labels are often in foreign languages or simply removed) , and who
usually wouldn't have any other choice but to take them even if they knew what
they were.

"The new internationalist" had a very good issue on dumping a few months ago.
I believe it was the December Issue, but I am not too sure.  I would recommend
it to anybody who is interested in this topic.
