This is also a huge problem for the Swiss postal service which has to sort all mail from China by hand. In the next few years the Swiss postal service will start to charge additional fees to the recipients of such packages to cover their losses. I think a very large problem is that the packages are non standardised which prevents them from being sorted by machine easily.

This is ironically why the ePacket was created as mentioned in the article. They get their standardization, but continue to lose money. And our (US) rates continue to rise. Get rid of it and it reverts to U.N. mandated rates which are even cheaper.
