    Sorry to join the thread late.

    Unfortunately, there is already a glut of people further up the chain. I imagine it is very tough to move up and compete against people already doing these jobs unless you want to take a very low rate - but that just ruins it for everyone.

    Also, I remember a thread on here showing the number ICT's and the jobs being done. The statistics were showing an increase in Bob's doing work further up the chain. It's only a matter of time before they do everything.

    We're all doomed

    You should have that as your sig rather than just announce it every time you post so that everyone can reply in monosyllables to give you a chance.

    Oh FFS, I said it clearly already - they mainly nick stuff in military areas which is what everyone does, however in civil matters they've created model where FOREIGN SUPPLIERS turn over technology to THEM, even invest in factories to hire local stuff who will make these things from high number of local parts, effectively creating complete supply chain where as such chains get decimated in western countries.

    There should have been MASSIVE taxes on technology, jobs and ownership transfer to countries that are fundamentally compete unfairly - meaning places like China where they have no pension system, no proper HR laws, little or no taxes etc: there should have never been equal trade deal with such fundamentally unequal partners.

    Seeing how AtW can't be bothered showing you up to be the cretin you are, I'll spoonfeed you.

    No doubt as the report contains more than just monosyllables, I'll have to extract some salient points to save you the gurning.

    With respect to China’s indigenous innovation policies, Mr. Holleyman expressed
    concern that the Chinese government would continue trying to develop policies that
    exclude foreign software from the market and force transfers of technology to Chinese
    entities
    . As it stands, he said, the indigenous innovation catalogue already includes
    software requirements that could exclude U.S. software from Chinese government
    procurement.
    Pertinent section in bold for you, I can't make it any more obvious.

    Allegations of misappropriation also have arisen in cases where foreign companies began
    operations through joint ventures in China and soon found themselves competing with
    their former joint venture partners.53 In one reported example, German-based Siemens
    joined with China National Railway (CNR) to build China’s first high-speed rail line
    between Beijing and Tianjin for an estimated contract value of almost $1 billion; this
    project was successfully concluded in 2008. Shortly thereafter, Siemens announced that it
    had won a contract to build a high-speed rail line between Beijing and Shanghai, but
    China’s Ministry of Railways ultimately awarded the $5.7 billion contract to CNR, with
    Siemens effectively demoted to a subcontractor role.54 While details of the technology
    transfer process are not public, it appears that CNR did benefit from its joint venture
    relationship with Siemens and has now become an important competitor in the industry.
    Little clue, the bold bit is the name of 'a single company' to satisfy you, cretin.

    Patents only valid in the country where they were issued.

    I am pretty sure vast majority of patents owned by western countries were not granted in China, in which case Chinese companies can legally make whatever products listed in patents so long as they sell them internally or in other countries not covered by patents.
