AP) TEHRAN, Iran - Iranian publishers are complaining that cost-saving plans to print Qurans (Korans) in China are yielding embarrassing results: A slew of typos.


The head of Iran's Quran oversight office says some of the Chinese-printed versions of Islam's holy book are littered with spelling errors.


Ahmad Haji-Sharif is quoted by Iran's semiofficial Mehr news agency as warning consumers that lower-cost Qurans may have mistakes in the holy verses. He noted earlier this week that Iranian-produced Qurans carry a higher price but have passed a careful inspection for any flaws.


Officials are now discussing a ban on Chinese-printed Qurans.


The Qurans that are in use in Iran often have both Farsi and the original Arabic.


Haji-Sharif didn't say whether the misspellings prevail in the Arabic or Farsi segments.

It seems Chinese and Indians know each other trade since they are the two largest Asian and South Asian neighbors. Russel Peters said it right that Chinese doesn't give bargains, and Indians cannot live without bargains that's why they can work FOR each other but not WITH each other. Big Grin
