Many of the panels in the US are manufactured in China.

I was more referencing the fact that there's a significant problem in china with the misappropriation of funds and replacing of real components and equipment with fake or non-functioning components and equipment.

US has regulatory bodies that (sometimes) work on their own, China has regulatory bodies that only work when the state notices something is wrong, and by that time it's too late and several billion yuan (RMB) deep.

It's not as though there's an intended malevolence to the people by the CCP, it's just that their organization structure and manner doesn't allow for a lot of autonomy and requires direct orders to go into action.
