RED CARPET TREATMENT BY INDIA ON US FIRMS

With the news and developments happening in India at the moment, that this country is hell-bent on taking the biggest portion of foreign firms leaving China amid this pandemic situation, and in consideration that the US is very serious about resolving the supply chain of the world, is a highly significant occurrence that our government should put attention to and make strategies and solutions to our current economic state plagued by low foreign investments. 

Instead of adding more, the country is losing more. The closures of Japanese car plants and other big tech giants exiting our country sends a bad signal for American firms to put this country in their radar. 

Practically, there is no trade and economic policies that our government is doing facing this chance of having the bulk of American firms invest in the country in the hope of making it as the hub of  FDIs as a long term economic plan beside this pandemic is not shared positively for us.

While India is doing its homework, the Philippines is very unable caused by the previous statements made by the President and his animosity with the US caused by its human rights records that created this gap. He personally and openly declared his separation from the US from his previous state visit to China and for the lack of regard on defending the economy against the onslaught of imbalanced trade particularly with China and its onerous loans incurred, that it is very difficult now for the Philippines to return unless a change of government policy is taken as soon immediately.

It becomes difficult for the Philippines to benefit from the exodus of American firms now  about to flood India because of the circumstances given.

Our declining economy amid the pandemic is a matter of concern, that with the size of our trade, we are already in the brink of losing our balance, that something must be done to spur the business sector and liberalize its environment for the gneral welfare.

THE ARTICLE that India prepare red carpet for foreign firms leaving China









   

India Pledges Easy Access to Land for Factories Leaving China

In the article written in Bloomberg,THE BLOOMBERG ARTICLE CAN B READ HERE  it is impressive that India is doing everything to get he US companies now in the mode of an exodus from China by assigning a land pool to accommodate these American firms in India.

When this happens, India will entirely benefit the situation of the US of dismantling China as the Factory of the World, and yet in our case, what do we do?

We need foreign investments and technology for this country to prosper, and the only way to fast track the goal is to look at India now, already in talks with foreign firms going to them by making everything favourable to the investors and secure in long term manner their growth and GDP to rise that fast.

In our setting, we should make moves to invite these thousand companies now packing to leave China and that Japan also is making the same.

I don't hear stories in the country about these opportunities that other countries are doing in the background amid the closure of the ABS-CBN, while, in fact, these things should be the attention of our experts making moves on the opportunities of the pandemic.

The land issues is one thing that investors are very about, that their security fo heir long term investments shall be protected by all means but not sacrificing the constitution.

Tax, land and labour problems can be resolved by this ad hoc situation aimed for the benefit of the country, that an adjustment is needed to meet halfway our economic goals.

The regions of Mindanao should particularly be the good location for any proposed industrial site in the country because it is a sustainable and needs development, considering that the region will meet the standards favourable for the foreign investor by land and labour and taxes.

The government should speed up to make offers to these foreign firms as India is ramping on allocating lands appropriate for all foreign firms that son receiving inquiries from the US, Japan, South Korea, and the EU's that should make the Philippines send our officials, negotiators that should make things happen immediately.

TRUMP SEEKING TO REWIRE SUPPLY CHAIN , REDUCE CHINA DEPENDENCE

TRUMP SEEKING TO REWIRE  SUPPLY CHAIN , REDUCE CHINA DEPENDENCE

In view of the recent developments caused by the pandemic virus from China, the United States has now introduced plans to shift its dependence from China of its the supply chain;  not only that, but the on-going conflict in the south China Sea is also a rising concern because of trade hampered by China's provocative actions in the sea lane. 
It was established that there are no historical claims fo China's nine-dash line. 

At many instances, there is a satisfying reason that China is not a fair country to deal with, presented by the numerous incidents and situations where it reneged on its statements and promises, and generally, it is now suffering a backlash from countries because of the COVID-19 pandemic that originated in Wuhan. 

Because of the plans of the US to shift the supply chains elsewhere, it is very significant for our government to study and take steps towards benefitting the thousands of manufacturers as potential investments in the country that will be a game-changer when it materialized.

Because Inda is on the verge of luring the US businesses to seek them invest in their country, very special consideration for the government to adjust for this sudden change of events to invite the same the US companies to have a look and consider the Philippines at this statement of President Trump. 

Foremost, tax and labour regulations must be adjusted to meet favour for foreign businesses to consider the country on a basis that it will have a gradual and reasonable change for the long term solution to our FDI problem. 

(We will discuss in the next episodes the local businesses that would primarily benefit anything that the  government will legislate alongside with what is best for both foreign and local investments in a single goal of GDP growth.)

The supply chain is one area where the country can benefit arising from the current pandemic situation that our government should look hard into because this is an opportunity for the country to have a good share of foreign firms leaving China. the situation now should have an effect on the government to move on this path of competing with India who is now in motion that will heavily impact the country economically.

Because we lack the technology, foreign investments will make headway for the country to self-develop and gain technology as a long term aspiration.

INDIA LURING MORE THAN 1,000 U.S. COMPANIES OUT OF CHINA

INDIA LOOKS TO LURE MORE THAN 1,000 U.S. COMPANIES OUT OF CHINA.

In the Bloomberg article dated MAY 7, 2020 The Bloomberg Article Here, it is seen that India is underway working to lure a massive 1,000 U.S. firms to transfer to India from China amid the pandemic situation, and this shows for the Philippines competition in terms of luring foreign investments to uplift the country and industrialize its economy.

The number of companies, if it will invest in a country, will create a great surprise in the GDP of that country and India has sent invitations and letters yet responded at the moment by the U.S. firms. 

Conversely, I hope the Philippines had taken the same initiative as India to take the chance of a trade war, the COVID-19 pandemic, and recent statements and moves by Japan, the EU and most countries to bolt from China.

The Philippines should the same invite these 1,000 U.S. firms in competition with India and present our case as the best offer over all other countries' scouting transfer to other neighboring countries.

One big aspect of the offer is India's bent to change its tax and labor laws just to fit the convenience of US companies to invest. In the same manner, the Philippines should also look into the conditions of our tax and labor laws to mend the situation and eventually harvest the needed investments abroad.

It is an Investor market, believe it. the law of supply and demand rules.

India knows exactly how to address the problem of luring US companies out of China, and that is through tax and labor laws.

In our setting, there is no gainsaying that our own tax and labor regulations present a hostile picture to capitalists, that for an emerging economy like the Philippines, trying to engage a role in the supply chain of the world, we must be self-ready and make the necessary adjustments for the demand of times.

Because the news article presents a threat to the economy of the Philippines, it is time that we should so look at our situation and offer the same when necessary in the spirit of competition.

Because of that offer, we should hold back some of our tax and labor regulations just to make the economy of the country competitive with the international demands.

We will discuss at another time how the government and our local entrepreneurs can be tapped to augment foreign investments and serve as the backbone of our economy, i.e. to relieve private sectors of stiff regulations of the government and make the country livable for capital and investments both local and international so it may thrive and succeed in the international competition of world trade.

THE CHINA 5G NETWORKS

CHINA CHIPS INTO CIA, US MILITARY and COMMERCIAL SERVERS, leaving them OPEN TO HACKS.

The security threat is so enormous to consider that the findings, studies, investigations, and other discoveries on the technology theft by China against the US named as the world leader in technology advancements is mounting, but China in its place as the supply chain for the world handling, manufacturing of these highly sensitive products had created the security the threat as very huge and incalculable for the entire security of the world. Most devices supplied to the US by China has been tampered by insertions of microchips providing as the backdoor for the PLA to sneak and steal valuable secrets from its customers worldwide but not limited to the CIA, the US congress, the Whitehouse, the military and others that technically had placed all of them as at risk. These information’s were widely investigated by the concerned US departments and the media for many years and the report is very real to the threat not only of the US but for the entire world.

The risk expands entirely worldwide significantly involving allies of the United States in Europe including the so-called “Five Eyes” intelligence-sharing of these countries. But the discovery by the US of these threats had created restraints primarily for the United States to defend and secure its government and other sensitive homeland security protocols to avert the supply and for the use of these materials that will put at risk the US and all allies everywhere.

The emerging trouble with these allies today is their refusal to heed on the US intelligence findings that they proceed even more to use Huawei technologies for their 5g networks that naturally will affect their relations and intelligence sharing.  Because of the new installations of the 5g infrastructures in Britain for example, the US is now pulling its military assets in that region including those intelligence sectors that will be affected. Entirely, the whole security systems of military installations and cooperation by the US with these countries or in Europe is now affected by the withdrawals of forces now being made.  

Relating this matter to our situation, our government has engaged with China in almost major communication infrastructures in a country using its devices in every sector of our military, communications, power grids, government, private, and business organizations that entirely will shut down by a remote click of a button form China. It was reported alone that our power grids are feared threatened for an imminent shutdown that the country will readily fall because of our infrastructures and its own technical personnel and engineers hold sensitive positions in the power grid that only they know how to operate or encrypted anything in the grid. The exclusion of our own technical people in the key positions to operate or design these devices in the facilities are practically troubling.

The third telco player alone in the country is suspected as support in funds and loans by China and can be deemed as a categorical threat to us. It is very compelling to imagine that our choices for China in all our loans, infrastructure systems, even in the government, intelligence and the military have reduced this country as a subordinate state to China.

We are a sovereign country, and we should maintain to protect ourselves against the power, influence, and pressures of world powers. We should stand alone and be safe by doing things that will provide us with security by first improving our economy by turning our GDP into trillions upon trillions of dollars that will make us independent from China as an example. We should encourage our people to be entrepreneurs in every field and manufacture products that our households need so as to attain national security by means of self-sustainability.

Unless our government concentrate more on trade and commerce, multiply our exports, there is none that we can achieve national security.
