To the contrary, there is a HUGE market for 'grey' and 'black' market Indian pharma/generic drugs in China. Especially, life-saving and related anti-cancer drugs like "geftinat." You will get a lot of hits if you do on-line searches in Chinese.
here's a quick example:

..
I have had chinese friends request me to buy life-saving medicines on my trips to India for the treatment of their family members here in China. A lot of Chinese I know trust overseas generics more than their homegrown ones........so, there is more to it than meets the eye.

Nothing new here......both the Chinese and Indian marketplaces are filled with spurious counterparts......
Counterfeit Drugs Made In China Relabeled "Made In India" - The Consumerist
—>The Chinese poison train makes plenty of stops outside of the United States. When those stops are in developing countries, bad things can happen. Even worse things happen when dangerous products from China are intentionally mislabeled as being from another country. Say, India.
In this case, the dangerous products were fake antimalarial tablets destined for Nigeria. 642,000 people would have been affected had the Nigerian government not discovered the fake drugs and intercepted them. While the tablets were labeled "Made in India," evidence showed that they were produced in and shipped from China.
Both China and India are big players in the manufacture of generic drugs, and both export medicines to Africa. The Indian government is, understandably, concerned that the incident may hurt the reputation of India's pharmaceutical industry in Africa and elsewhere around the world. Rightly so, since India is more than capable of exporting their own fake drugs. No help from China needed. hahahahaha...good one!..funny!
