China is the factory of the world. They make two sets of goods. For EU/US/AU amrket and for Bonobos (Africa/South Asia) Market.
Every now and then I see stupid arguments here to the effect that a device whose Mother company is in Europe but has been assembled in China is of low quality and I shake my head.
Why isn’t iPhone termed as low Quality yet it has been manufacturered in China for more than 10 years by Foxcon? its only recently that Apple opened another factory in India. Same with HMD/Nokia, its a Finnish company but the factories are in China does it mean HMD Nokia are fake yet they have Warranties honored globally? Samsung also has factories in China
They are designed in other countries and assembled in china because of cheap expendable labour. But chips are made in Taiwan which isnt part of china… yet
There was a time in the 1930, 40s, 50s that goods from Japan were considered low quality…that changed and the perception about China goods is also changing fast.
Ghasia you should know that there is a difference between assembling and manufacturing the parts. Hata ukiletea Kamau na Onyango all the parts of a Toyota Land cruiser zikiwa separate they will assemble the vehicle just like the Japs will do it. But Kamau na Onyango cannot make a Toyota Land cruiser engine.
There is a serious labour shortage in the manufacturing sector right now in China and they can’t meet demand for goods in Europe and America. Chinese manufactured goods are becoming very competitive.
China has different standards for different markets. From the highest to the lowest. Problem is that Africans will import the lowest quality which is the cheapest, to sell it locally at the price of a high quality good. Chinese record in the construction industry is unrivaled. Most PSV buses used locally esp MSA route are Chinese made.
