NK making Made In China Clothes

If this is any indication, Reuters is saying the shops on North Korea's border are making clothes with Made in China labels.  That's one way to beat sanctions - China's way.  When China was having trouble selling steel because of US sanctions, it farmed the steel out to other countries, like Vietnam, to refinish by applying treatments that China could have done easier.  Then, it was Vietnamese steel.  So, they are still doing business with NK, and marking the goods Made in China.  What is this, besides plain and simple whitewash of sanctions.  China did more business before coal sanctions against NK in order to get the whole year's quota before beginning the UN sanctions.  Are we kidding ourselves here?  China is not going to stop supporting the North because they like what the North does for them.  They get to watch the world react and prepare defenses without exposing themselves as the aggressor.  We are tired of this game.
