For the past few days I’ve been posting excerps from my Honors Undergraduate Thesis. Things have been changing very quickly in China recently, especially for MLM.
Often considered a cult by the Chinese Government, (like the Falun Gong), the Chinese government is departamentally trying to deal with the 10 Billion dollar industry in China.
In the meantime, MLM companies are doing what they can to catch up with Amway and take advantage of the situation before anything else changes.
If anyone is interested in my full thesis and references, let me know. I’d be happy to see what I can do to make that available.

Would love to read your entire thesis on this subject of MLM in China along with references. I am interested in it from the perspective of determining if MLM can really be classified as an “industry” given that it exceeds USD $100B in annual revenue production. Or, since it is not classified by the markets as an “industry” is it something quite different? Please email what you can. Thank you. Rob
