Chinas problems arent low quality goods , China does make high quality goods for foreign compnaies. The problem is the copy of high quality goods in China which the authorities cant really stop. Chinese come to Japan not just for better quality goods but because the high probability that there genuine items and not copies. Baby formula nappies rice cookers designer bags etc etc etc

Better electric rice cookers"

To cook rice, all you have to do is put a little under 1 cup of rice and exactly 2 cups of water in a pot, bring it to a boil on the gas range, turn down the gas to keep it simmering under a lid for exactly 17 minutes, tuen off the gas, let it sit for 5-10 minures and PRESTO! perfect rice!

So eventually as the cheap Chinese version saturate the market the "made in Japan" ones might become even more desirable as "luxury brand name product" which might be a good thing for Japanese rice cooker & toilets.
