Bursting beer bottles killed five people and injured 52 in China in the second quarter of this year, topping the list of the country's consumer complaints, the China Daily newspaper reported on Wednesday.
In the April to June period, the China Consumers Association handled 270 consumer complaints involving loss of life or property, the paper quoted spokesman Wu Gaohan as saying.
Other main targets of 199,000 consumer complaints in the second quarter were telecommunications, where they were up 50 percent, and beauty parlors, Wu was quoted as saying.
The China Daily gave no further details of the effort to improve the quality of goods in China, where shoddy and counterfeit products are everywhere.
