chinese netizens: Does it matter It matters if you are a Chinese pig, according to Global Times China. It matters if you like eating pork in China, wrote economist Paul Donovan. The report on China's latest consumer price index CPI seen by the Global Times earlier on Thursday morning, titled Very Normal Inflation, said Chinese consumer prices rose due to sick pigs. The report sparked strong anger among Chinese netizens calling for an official apology from UBS after it issued the racist report on China's inflation. We have removed the audio comment from circulation, UBS China told the Global Times on Thursday, noting that to be clear, this comment was about inflation and Chinese consumer prices rising, which was driven by higher prices for pork. We apologize unreservedly for any misunderstanding caused by these innocently intended comments by Paul Donovan.
