On the other hand, the restrictions and limits when doing business in China cannot be neglected. China imposes tariffs and restricts foreign countries to certain sale regions which limits the opportunities of Intel to expand. Furthermore, China required some companies to enter joint ventures with Chinese companies in the past. This might lead to unfavourable contracts with companies which do not fit in the general concept of Intel. But in my opinion, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. From all the potential locations Dalian seems to be the most favourable one.

India for example still has to deal with an unstable government and with slow progress on much-needed economic reforms. In addition, the infrastructure of India is still under-capitalized which makes the supply of important items difficult.

Fraud and corruption are still wide spread in Vietnam which makes it nearly impossible to do business there.

As in India, the governmental situation is not stable as well. Besides, Thailand has to deal with natural disasters s
Question 2: Where would you build the new plant? Why?

I personally prefer China. The first and most obvious reason why to choose China are the low cost. Low labour costs in combination with an ambitious and well educated workforce provide huge cost saving potential. Moreover, Intel has already experience in doing business in China since the company has already built several plants in Shanghai and Chengdu. In addition, the rapidly expanding industrial complex offers many opportunities to fix advantageous contracts with suppliers and beneficial cooperation with other companies. In contrast to other locations in Asia, the infrastructure in China is good which ensures the supply of important items. Besides, China offers tax breaks which represents a huge cost saving potential as well.

    Ribe should develop new business areas and specifically enter into China. They already have a 10,000 square meters building in the Nordic Industrial Park, and most of that area is aimed for companies specifically trying to rent a production cell. Usually Ribe charges its clients for its services but with the NIP building clients could avoid this capital being tied up. When it comes to offshoring China serves as one of the leaders for global expansion. There are 3 different categories that you can measure the global expansion on. After weighing China against two other countries that are possible candidates for expansion it appears to be the best. The overall business attractiveness chart comes from averaging the other three numbers together. One con of global expansion into China is the freight time of 38 days, which could cause delay in orders from companies if they decide to change orders suddenly. These types of situations are calculated risks and China has plenty of other great reasons to locate there. Forecasting demand…

    Microsoft faced many macro risks when operating in China. Many of these risks included software piracy, Chinese government pressure to transfer technology, host government promotion of competitor products, discriminatory procurement practices by sub-national authorities in China, and the strong encouragement for Microsoft to enter joint ventures with local firms. One main micro risk that Microsoft faced was when the Beijing Municipal government avoided Microsoft by awarding operating system software contracts for 2,000 PCs to Red Flag Linux. I see these risk increasing due to the fact that the Chinese Central Bank has put new restrictions to foreign exchange transactions in attempt to control the flow of convertible currency out of the country. This restriction set in place by the Chinese Central Bank was described as a "crackdown" on illegal transactions. This change will effectively make it more difficult for both domestic and international companies to move capital in and out of China. In result, only increasing the risks for MNCs to do business in China. Another main reason why I see the risks increasing is that the Chinese government has not made an effort to control the piracy/counterfeiting issues. Counterfeiters are China's largest state owned factories. These risk are also found in other developing countries such as India where piracy and counterfeiting is a big issue.…
