China simply suffers from (somewhat intentional) lack of communication and information, hence the bad rep. I'm sure there are great manufacturers in China, but finding them is like looking for a needle in a haystack. And they suffer from it as well.
I heard a story about a Chinese guitar workshop that intended to produce high quality instruments, but couldn't sell them. The costs of work and materials dictated a minimum price, and no one was ready to pay that sum for a "Chinese guitar".
