BEIJING, March 15(Xinhuanet)-- China aims to set up a nationwide product identification, authentication and tracking system by the year 2010, said officials from the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine on Wednesday. The system, which has been put into trial operation in north China's Hebei Province, aims to protect consumer and company rights and promote the overall social economic development. The system will be a national network for quality control, based on modern communication technology, network technology and coding technology, said the officials. It can be helpful for consumers to differentiate between fake and genuine products. Enterprises can have a better idea about product sales via the system. The system will also help the law enforcement departments to keep a close eye on the whole market. The administration is planning to implement the system in 100 key cities, which will cover 100 key products in the foodstuffs, agricultural and building materials sectors. Enditem
