Originally, the East India Co. imported (pushed) opium grown in India into China. This was the source of the Opium Wars. China was forced to legalize opium imports by Great Britain. Later, opium poppies were also grown in China. The poppies are also grown in Afghanistan and other countries. There is no reason to believe that "China white" was not sourced from China. This info is documented in that book I linked to. READ IT!

The article I posted (with info from the book I linked to) is older. Currently, "China White" refers to the synthetic. HOWEVER, when that article was written, the term referred to Southeast Asian heroin. This is documented in the NY Times article from 1987:

"CHINESE NOW DOMINATE NEW YORK HEROIN TRADE By PETER KERR Published: August 9, 1987"

"Chinese criminals have taken over the dominant role in New York City's heroin industry, in a sudden restructuring of a multibillion-dollar enterprise that for decades was the preserve of the Mafia, Federal law-enforcement officials say.

Authorities say ethnic Chinese traffickers have recently been flooding the New York market with huge shipments of Southeast Asian heroin, or China White, which is among the world's purest.

The rise of Southeast Asian heroin in New York, where half the nation's heroin addicts live, comes as officials are warning that Chinese organized crime is on the rise around the country." http://www.nytimes.com/1987/08/09/nyregion/chinese-now-dominate-new-york-heroin-trade.html
