[Leica] Leica in trouble in China

[Jayanand Govindaraj]

They should not have released the ad in the first place. Sensible
companies do not risk their biggest, most unquestioning market for any
reason whatsoever. The management showed very poor judgement, both in
making the short in the first place, and then pulling it from China.

Cheers
