Synta is now the proud owner of Celestron.
They probably bought in because the patents
and technology to make SCT correctors is
essential to reproduce that business in
MAINLAND CHINA! So the next time a tank
rolls over some democracy protester in Tianamen Square,
picture a C8 mounted on the front of it!
Start by getting your data right.
Synta is a _Taiwanese_ company, not a Chinese company. They do have a
manufacturing plant in China, and are already the largest manufacturer of
OEM optics in the world.

Now where did I say Synta was in Mainland China?
They are no more responsible for their contracted Chinese
factories than Nike was with sweatshops they employed to
make shoes.
