Fish Rant and i suppose a question

I'm in the grocery store today, and i see this individually packed and frozen Pacific salmon. Great, i love pacific salmon and try to get that over atlantic salmon which is almost always farmed. I look on the package, and it says Caught in USA, Processed in China. 

A. why the hell would it be sent to china to be processed?
B. What processing is being done? 

I hate buying chinese live food because their health and sanitation conditions are nightmares. How much of this is getting done in China? Is this essentially now a Chinese product?

Also, the ingredients said Chum Salmon. Is that a part of it? It looked skin on, but i suppose it wasn't a filet. The price seemed way too low. What the hell is going on here?
