American never want to see china developing.The profit earned very little,because the end of the industrial chain in China.Americans don't want similar wages to the Chinese. They want good wages that enable them to maintain a first class lifestyle.

I must admire the selecter's sight on such topic, which is embarrass and skeptical. Totally I don't agree with the author's conclusion. My main opinons are below.
1. The aim of U.S. companies in China are searching for labour arbitrage is true, but not the only reason especilly at present in China the cost of labour is rising so high spported by Lewis's point of inflexion in 2010.
2. The reason for off-shore trading is complicated and I think off-shore trading would have severial stages whcih are not the same inflecting the economic structures and scopes. Now China has been in a fast-changing period in all the industries especially the manufactures. China needs to improving the high-tech portion and consummating the supply chains when the developed countries had finished yet.
3. What the developed countries should do and have already been doing is enhancing technical upgrading. Any country should look forward instead of looking backward.

The USA is always the central of world manufacture,but it was not and will not be the central for build everything. Planes,computer  chips , pharmaceuticals and other high tech products are always thrive in the US. I think it is foolish for the US to attract the low tech manufacture department back to the US. Dispite of the fact that wages in China and other emerging market rises,it will take a really long time for the cost of labour and other factors to catch up with that in the US. And more important , the people in American will finally find it too expensive to buy every goods made in the US. That kind of inflation lever will surely be more dreadful than a moderate unemployment.

Labor arbitrage  is disappearing and the initial advantage of  cheap labors in China will  decrease .
A revolution on the economic system is on the way. Once success, we will not just to share the lowest profit of the supply chain.

this is the second time to be following this part of studying.
the sentence "When oil prices soar, transport grows dearer." is so perfect, before now, I always link the price of oil with the cost of some products and some companys, but I have never linked it to the cost of transporting. It's good!
If the fact likes this ,maybe the economic of China will be difficult, the supply chain will be more difficult to develop without the help of the foreign companies.
with the other hand, the part of "hot money" aims at the exchange rate between yuan and doller and if they are there, some firm should be there for the chances to get incomes from the gamble and the supply which is developed by the money.
the foreigners are not confident enough to say the idea clearly, cas the policy is unknowed in China, the policy in Exhange Rate and in the Rate and also in the Market is important to the companies!
but, to get a overall idea, the meaning of the report that the change with the factories is really happen, We should conside it!

to be shy that 。。。。I read this paper with a software which can help me get the meaning of new words, I should improve my english now and then.

above all, this part of studying is totally important! I will follow then。。

I didn't get online yesterday, so I missed yesterday's activity!

For today's topic, it is a topic discussed for long, but it is more heated these days for rebalance and inflation (especially for labor and oil). For China, it won't be possible to keep the development mode and it is the same for US. The two countries have to face the truth and adjust properly so as to avoid impacts caused by transforming.

Multinational companies will shift to consider markets not just low cost, and it is more likely that they go abroad to serve the emerging markets. They also have to pay attention on supply chains which should be made more flexible and reliable.

KEY WORDS: MULTINATIONAS   OFFSHORE   LABOUR COSTS   BACK TO AMERICAN   RENAISSANCE
By reading this article , we may got the viewpoint that nowadays many multinational manufacturers are considering to set subsides bank to American due to the ever-rising labor costs in emerging countries like China ,India, etc. Labor arbitrage , which played a great part to pushing multinationals to locate offshore ,now  seems less allure at least for some multinationals(e.g.Caterpillar, a maker of vehicles that dig, pull or plough, is shifting some of its excavator production from abroad to Texas).
That BCG’s forecast for a “manufacturing renaissance” might be one of the most creative idea .This is from a basic logic that a stampede of plants coming home will boom American manufacture sector and its economy. However ,there are some reasons to be sceptical. First of all, some multinationals will find it hard to bring many jobs back to American .For example , in some areas, such as electronics, American no longer has the necessary supplier base. Moreover multinationals will continue to build most of their new factories in emerging markets , not to export stuff back home just for the fastest growing demand there.

When clients are American firms looking to build factories to serve American customers, Mr Sirkin is increasingly likely to suggest they stay at home, not for patriotic reasons but because the economics of globalisation are changing fast.

对于那些以美国消费者为主、想到国外开设工厂的企业，施金越来越倾向于建议他们将工厂设在美国国内，这不仅是爱国主义的表现，也是因为全球经济正发生巨大变化。

In above article, the author describes  the phenomenon of mutinational manufacturing backing to America ,and there are several reasons accouting for this, such as the rising wages in china ,India, and the transportion expenses burden caused by increased oil prices, the similar productivity and consumption in America and china and so on,   As far as i am concerned, china as an emerging market will still play its key role in world economic for a long time , and the rising of wages in china is not so severe as imagined, then  consumption with the sustaining of inflation  will increase naturally,
Thus,plesse keep a calm brain on it.

In my opinion, higher labor cost is one reason. But the most important reason for the US companies to go back is that the export policy in China will be changed. Since 2008, the income tax rate of foreign-invested companies has risen to 25%, the same as that of domestic enterprises. And now, China is trying to transit from an export-oriented country to a domestic consumption emphasized one. In former days, foreign companies are encouraged by export tax rebate, but now, the advantage is diminishing.
After long periods of economic recession, I guess US government is taking some measures to stimulate domestic manufacturing industry, and it poses temptation to the entrepreneurs. By contrast, China's preferential policy to foreign companies are changing. In the long run, as required by WTO and also expected by USA, the protectionism barrier of China will be lower. Therefore, it doesn't matter much whether US companies should establish one subsidiary in Chinese mainland to circumvent such high barriers later.
I think all the above factors contribute to the result that American companies prefer to set up new factories in homeland rather than in China.

the gap of wages between China and the west has been narrowing,  which shows our advantage of low labour cost is shrinking but may be also a great chance for China to  transform the mode of economic development from labour intensive to others.

Wages are increasing fast in emerging economics boom as in China,then the gains of labour arbitrage are staring to shrink.In my opinion,it is just the surface reasons,in fact,with the deepening of economic reforms,chinese economic policy has undergone significant changes.
Hold on!

The wages in China has been increasing , many multinationals is locating their new plants close to home .
Many multinationals will still build their factories in emerging markers because that is where new demanding is growing fastest .

In this passage,the author analysed some reasons of American manufature factories dropping out from China to USA.That is rising wages which played an important role and a modest appreciation of the yuan against the dollar.In some other sectors,cost of tranportantion and stability of supply chains are also important factors.
In my opinion,wo are obliged to foster our own enterpises which are influencial in the world.As the rising of wages is inevitable,the only way to further development is to improve the productivity.At this point we should learn from India in some sectors.

keep studying

labor/ tranportantaion/supply chain/tax impact/Trade rate is the surface phenomenon. In this issue, I think USA considering  the strategic plan to let factory go home because of the major competence of the technology.China has controlled some tech skill by foreign factory step by step, so usa must keep the senior tech. skill in home for the secret. After all it pay USA much cash and play a more and more inportant role in the production.

I think Mr Sirkin's assumption that China's wage growth will continue at around 17% a year is too optimistic, and thus the conclusion that  manufacturers will be indifferent between locating in America or China for production is overstated.

Moreover, developing countries' labor cost advantage is not the only factor attracting multinational corporations. Other factors like inexpensive resources, and expanding market should have been taken into their condiseration, as well.

In the process of world economics development, lower labor cost is always the most important factor in the decision of the manufacturing factory location choice."Multinational manufacturers moving back to America" implies that something must has been changed, for example, the wages of emerging economies are increasing sharply because of the development of the country.Emerging economies, such as China,India is loosing this traditional advantage, they must take some actions to adapt to their changing environment.
The world is changing, some new perspectives should be valued.

For short, BCG suggests the multinationals not to build plants in China. They prefer to opening plants to meet a manufacturing renaissance~
Of course, this is a good way to develop national manufacturing. I think China should also develop its own manufacturing, then has its own products. Copying won't last long~

In recent years, the fertility rate in China has been dropping as a result of China's one-child policy. And the shrink of demographic bonus of China leads to the rise of pay for workers. What is more, the foreign investment policy of China has changed.  Now China encourages overseas investors to invest in new energy, environmental protection, high-tech, modern service and advanced manufacturing sectors. So it is understandable that some low-end manufacturers choose to move back to America.
