Monopoly nestles in milk

Shuangcheng, the largest cattle raising city in Heilongjiang province, produces 1,200 tons of fresh milk a day. But some media reports say that Nestle is using the local government's help to buy all the fresh milk available in the market, hurting the interests of local dairy farmers, says an article in Beijing News. Excerpts:

All companies should comply with the market principle of fair dealing and follow its laws irrespective of their size, wealth and stature. But by getting the Shuangcheng government's help to buy all the fresh milk available in the market, Nestle is violating the market order and hurting local farmers' interests.
