    In Africa, China Is Both Benefactor and Competitor - New York Times

    Quoted: Manufacturing has suffered in Africa as cheap Chinese goods flood the market, eliminating needed jobs.
    Today, only the cotton gin still runs, with the company’s Chinese managers buying raw cotton for export to China’s humming textile industry. Nobody can say when or even if the factory here will reopen.

    “We are back where we started,” said Wilfred Collins Wonani, who leads the Chamber of Commerce here, sighing at the loss of one of the city’s biggest employers. “Sending raw materials out, bringing cheap manufactured goods in. This isn’t progress. It is colonialism.”

    this is quite the problem. will Africa ever be at the positive end of the global market, and if so, how? obviously, export of raw goods has been a key to many African nations, but that alone cannot sustain an economy in this emerging high-skilled labor boost of the global economy? should China be blamed or do African nations need to emphasize the training of skilled-labor...

    Dell Raises Its Stake in India

    Quoted: A new plant in Chennai could help the PC maker catch up with rivals in a market that's the computer world's Next Big Thing.

    This will probably also help with Dell's marketing of Inspiron notebooks in Wal-mart--keeping manufacturing costs down. In my opinion, I think Dell's new partnership with Wal-Mart is as significant of a reason for opening this new factory in India, as India's growing PC market. I hope they don't make inferior quality products though...
