Apple manufacturer Foxconn reckons it will create one million jobs in India by 2020 – nearly the entire number of its current Chinese workforce – according to reports.
Hon Hai otherwise known in the West as Foxconn, last month revealed it was setting its sights on India due to increasing wage costs in China.
The firm has not released any more details or elaborated on what the plans will mean for its Chinese manufacturing base. However, it does appear to be slowly fleshing out a relocation move.

Ah, yes! But since you bring loyalty into it, the nations where these workers reside have no loyalty to the capitalist bastards exploiting them, except insofar as they are bought. So, "nationalization"? Worker Ownership? Soft Socialism? Far more dangerous in those places that in the US where a Confederate battle flag and anti-unionism are seen as patriotic, no? C'mon, khallow, you can clearly see the whole system is unsustainable, and will be going down within our lifetimes. Time to get on the side of history!

Actually, you implied it by the word, "betrayal".

I think you will end up pleasantly surprised. It's a lot more sustainable now than it was in 1950 and I think that trend will continue. The current developed world might have to be restructured economically due to high levels of publicly held government debt, central bank gaming, and the Eurozone mess, but I don't see those problems as insurmountable.
