The whole world spins in the chase for money, and the world gets smaller, China is in the starting to slow down phase, as its people get used to more luxuries, travel etc, they will start to demand more wages, and so it goes on. The new labour market will be sought in poorer countries still. Where the Chinese have been sensible is in purchasing large amounts of foreign resources, such as copper mines, steel works in poor countries etc. But its a fast moving situation, we can only wait and see what pans out KT
