      It’s still true now. China puts out far more trash than anything worth reading. Their universities still promote and reward researchers based upon number of papers published.

      China is near the top nation for the number of published papers later being retracted.

      China is a publication mill. What’s on the paper isn’t as important as how many papers have your name.
