This is why Foxconn did not go ahead with their expansion plans in India too. They are so used to the Chinese way, I guess they experienced a Pikachu moment when Indian workers started removing their aprons the moment it hit 5'o clock.
India may be a poor country, but the average laborer (skilledd or unskilled) is much more aware of his rights than a worker from PRC.
Their recent offerings have been a big disappointment. Gone were those days where you'd buy a logi mouse and keep it for atleast 5 years.
Apparently, not a single well in China has drinkable water. Groundwater in China is extremely toxic, and westerners who drink from public taps have a nasty, gastric treat.
They did that with mobiles too, released extremely cheap smartphones at first, then after cornering the market, jacked up their prices. Now, the entire industry runs from China.
