Report of the China Price Project (PDF; 313 KB) Source: Merage School of Business, University of California-Irvine - Chinese manufacturers have the capability to significantly undercut prices offered by foreign competitors over a wide range of products. Today, as a result of the “China Price,” China has captured over 70% of the world’s market share for DVDs and toys, more than half for bikes, cameras, shoes, and telephones; and more than a third for air conditioners, color TVs, computer monitors, luggage, and microwave ovens. It also has established dominant market positions in everything from furniture, refrigerators and washing machines to jeans and underwear. This report examines the eight major economic drivers of the China Price and provides estimates of their relative contributions to China’s manufacturing competitive advantage. Lower labor costs account for 39% of the China Price advantage. A highly efficient form of production known as “industrial network clustering” together with catalytic Foreign Direct Investment add another 16% and 3%, respectively. The remainder of the China Price advantage is driven by more mercantilist elements. Export subsides account for 17% of the advantage, an undervalued currency adds 11%, counterfeiting and piracy contribute 9%, and together, lax environmental and worker health and safety regulatory regimes add another 5%.

A review of Circle in the Sand: Why We Went Back to Iraq. A review of The Way to Win a Guerrilla War. Some civil wars never end: Lebanon and Iraq show that some long-fought civil wars only have cease-fires. In search of the fixers: Before troops can leave Iraq, the U.S. must learn who, if anyone, is in control of the gunmen; and there is no dearth of strategies for Iraq, in officialdom and beyond, but will any of them work? Long after we withdraw: David Rieff on the many lessons from Vietnam for Iraq. The Next Step? Think Vietnam: There is much moaning in Washington about the return of the realists. But what we need is a Kissingerian effort to extricate America.

Asia Times Bury my heart in the Green Zone With President Mahmud Ahmadinejad hosting his Iraqi counterpart in Iran (minus Syria) and President George W Bush due to meet Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki, the scramble for solutions to the Iraqi debacle continues. In the meantime, all options remain open to those not taking part in summits - the guerrilla resistance. Two scenarios could become a double bill: the return of the Ba'athists and an attack on the US heart in Iraq, the Green Zone. - Pepe Escobar

Radical US approach for radical leaders President Mahmud Ahmadinejad of Iran, Hassan Nasrallah of Lebanon's Hezbollah and Muqtada al-Sadr in Iraq represent a new breed of Shi'ite leader committed to the supremacy of Islam in political systems. They see the US as an obstacle to this. The US, as long as the situation in the Middle East worsens, will have to accommodate these leaders. - Ehsan Ahrari

US-China Economic and Security Review Commission: 2006 Report to Congress

IEA: World Energy Outlook 2006

Report of the China Price Project (PDF; 313 KB) Source: Merage School of Business, University of California-Irvine - Chinese manufacturers have the capability to significantly undercut prices offered by foreign competitors over a wide range of products. Today, as a result of the “China Price,” China has captured over 70% of the world’s market share for DVDs and toys, more than half for bikes, cameras, shoes, and telephones; and more than a third for air conditioners, color TVs, computer monitors, luggage, and microwave ovens. It also has established dominant market positions in everything from furniture, refrigerators and washing machines to jeans and underwear. This report examines the eight major economic drivers of the China Price and provides estimates of their relative contributions to China’s manufacturing competitive advantage. Lower labor costs account for 39% of the China Price advantage. A highly efficient form of production known as “industrial network clustering” together with catalytic Foreign Direct Investment add another 16% and 3%, respectively. The remainder of the China Price advantage is driven by more mercantilist elements. Export subsides account for 17% of the advantage, an undervalued currency adds 11%, counterfeiting and piracy contribute 9%, and together, lax environmental and worker health and safety regulatory regimes add another 5%. Implications for management strategy and public policy are noted within the context of the “flight or fight” choice facing manufacturing enterprises seeking to compete with China.

What they have said about Foreign Press Review
"FPR'ın iki "kötü" özelliği var: 1. Alışkanlık yaratıyor, onsuz yapamaz hale geliyorsunuz; 2. Değeri alındığı değil, arada bir de olsa, alınamadığı vakit anlaşılıyor. Bir de sürekli bir kaygıya yol açıyor; 'Ya bir gün kesilir ve onu hiç alamazsam' duygusuyla sürekli yaşamak kolay değil."

Cengiz Çandar
