Sure, there's corruption in China. There's corruption everywhere in the world to varying degrees. I don't think that has anything to do with the ability to make a quality product.
This comment is laughable and shows me that you have little real world experience or seat time in China. Sure, you can find corruption anywhere, but it is absolutely rampant in China at all levels of industry and government. In a number of other Asian countries that also do high tech manufacturing, it's much less so.
As for Apple's situation, they are big enough that they can manage much of what they care about in a hands-on manner. That doesn't seem to include caring about workers taking headers off the roof, but shave a few cents off the cost of a component or the labor cost of assembly and you've got their full attention.
