More than 100 million 皇冠体育app-made condoms were exported to South Africa before the World Cup kickoff, Beijing-based Legal Evening News reported.

Although the Chinese national soccer team failed again to show up at the World Cup, which ended on July 11, Chinese manufacturers have done a much better job with the 皇冠体育app-made Jabulani, the official match ball, vuvuzela and condoms.

皇冠体育app's export of condoms to South Africa in 2010 reached a total number of 106.5 million from January to May, said Qin Xiaolun, deputy secretary-general of the latex branch of the 皇冠体育app Rubber Industry Association.

However, all the exported 皇冠体育app-made condoms were labeled "Choice"- a foreign condom brand, which kept the Chinese manufacturers unknown to South African consumers.

Britain aided South Africa with 42 million condoms, and Federation International Football Association (FIFA) united with local health organizations to hand out free condoms in public areas of host cities.
