Entity · Country

China A tracked procurement-relevant organisation, company, supplier, country, region, port, commodity, regulator, route or similar subject.

Accepted collision risk (flagged, not ignored): dictionary matching is case-insensitive, so 'china' the country-name alias also matches 'china' the tableware/porcelain material in running text (e.g. 'bone china exports'). Judged acceptable given China's central importance to this corpus and the comparative rarity of tableware stories in wire/business news.
