China Increased Environmental Monitoring Expenditure 42% from 2010-2011

It is suspected that the government expenditure on water monitoring equipment in China will grow drastically in the coming years. The MEP of China has already spent 42% more on environmental monitoring and information management between 2010 and 2011. Although the demand for monitoring equipment in China isn't developing quite as fast as expected due to "patchy implementation of regulations," there still are legal requirements that large polluting enterprises must install and operate monitoring instruments, which hints that the market is not going to decrease any time soon. In addition, only 60% of all water monitoring instruments are domestically created, also signaling huge potential in the local market.
