Australian tangerines, labeled as 'Grown in Son La, Vietnam', are causing confusion in Vietnam as they have been identified as Chinese Wenzhou oranges by a fruit wholesaler. Despite being half the price of imported Australian tangerines, small traders label them as Australian to increase sales, despite it being against regulations. The Son La Department of Agriculture and Rural Development has confirmed that the province has not planted Australian tangerines, making the 'grown in Son La' label false information. The import of Chinese vegetables and fruits into Vietnam has increased by approximately 22% in the first quarter, accounting for nearly 41% of Vietnam's fruit and vegetable import value.
