U.S. President Joe Biden told Chinese President Xi Jinping following his meeting with Russia’s Vladimir Putin to “be careful” because Beijing relies on Western investment.
Xi to Biden: “Be careful, your citizens’ purchasing power relies on us exploiting our poor rural population”
I’ve avoided buying anything made in China and items made in South Korea and Taiwan are just as cheap and of a better quality.
The components in those Taiwanese and South Korean products come from China. You can’t avoid the world’s second largest economy in a globalized world.
TSMC Is literally in Taiwan, Samsung is in Korea, and both make there own chips. What are you talking about?
There’s always more poor counties to exploit. There’s only so many rich ones to sell to.
Hasn’t that actually changing, with Western corporations turning to Vietnam and its neighbors due to wages rising in China?
That is true, but it is a very slow process that will take many years
And the West relies on Chinese manufacturing. All the scare mongering surrounding China, the US already would have pulled investment if they actually were the ones in control. The West has hitched its wagon to China at this point. They have no real alternative to turn towards.
