| Abstract | Tiny Qiaotou in east China's Zhejiang province is a town that time forgot, so much so that it has never been marked on a national map. Now it has found fame - as the country's largest button bazaar. In 1995 alone it sold 15 billion of them worth US$193 million. That's about three buttons for every person in the world. |
