China: La fabrica del mundo (Galería fotográfica)

dayro.longas · 23-02-2011 , 12:50:55

In 2010 China passed Japan as the world second largest economy based on GDP figure. It now only has the United States above it, but it can only be a matter of years (10 to 15) before it reaches the top spot. A combination of cheap labor and a can do attitude has transformed China from a mainly agricultural society to one that has become the world’s factory. Everything from cars to toys to highly delicate electronic goods such as your iPhone or Motorola Xoom tablet are made in China.
With its output of relatively cheap products China has enabled many in the world to better their standard of living. Whether it is someone in Brazil, Africa, Europe or America, they’ve all profited from China’s cheap goods. However, there is a downside to this, with consumers voting with their wallets and often buying the cheaper Made In China products, local producers have found it increasingly difficult to compete. The end result is less production locally, meaning less work, meaning more unemployment, meaning buying even more cheap goods from China. As a consumer we are happy with these luxury items which have all of a sudden become attainable, but as a worker we should be worried. China’s success could mean economies in Africa and South America need to find new ways to stay competitive. And not even Europe and the United States are safe. One dominating player is and has never been good for anyone.

China's gross domestic product growth will probably slow to 10.8 percent this year from 11.4 percent in 2007 as the government implements a relatively tight monetary policy, the leading government think-tank has forecast.

06. A job seeker looks for work at the near deserted Xintiandi employment centre, in Songgang town, Shenzhen January 22, 2010. Many factories in China's export hubs of the Pearl River Delta are scrambling to recruit and retain workers, sometimes illegally, as Western orders for Chinese goods gather pace again, while labour shortages loom. The annual Lunar New Year holidays in February are expected to bring a fresh wave of labour shortfalls which could curtail the potential and manufacturing capacity of China's vital export sector.

07. Labourers filter out stones from cinder at a workshop of a coal mine's coal washery in Huaibei, Anhui province March 8, 2010. This year China is targeting national coal output of 3.15 billion tonnes, a 3.3 percent increase, the country's economic planning ministry, the National Development and Reform Commmission, said in its annual economic plan on March 5.

08. Workers are seen inside a Foxconn factory in the township of Longhua in the southern Guangdong province May 26, 2010. A spate of nine employee deaths at global contract electronics manufacturer Foxconn, Apple's main supplier of iPhones, has cast a spotlight on some of the harsher aspects of blue-collar life on the Chinese factory floor.

The factory employs more than 200 workers and manufactures electronic products mainly for export to the U.S. and European markets. REUTERS/Aly Song

11. Workers rest inside their hostel after lunch inside a shoe factory in Ganzhou, Jiangxi province June 21, 2010. With the yuan now climbing again, factories in China's coastal export hubs are fretting that a stronger currency will compound a sharp rise in wage and production costs. But an abundant supply of cheaper workers means that plants sprinkled in the interior are somewhat insulated from the surging wage demands that have sparked a series of headline-grabbing strikes in the powerhouse province of Guangdong. Take Ganzhou, a newly emerging industrial region in Jiangxi province, just to the north of Guangdong. Picture taken June 21, 2010. REUTERS/Bobby Yip

12. A worker works while surrounded by unmanned sewing machines at the production line of a bag factory in Yiwu, Zhejiang province, February 15, 2011. China's booming coastal provinces are facing a labour shortage after the Lunar New Year holidays as the seemingly endless flow of migrant workers dries up. More and more workers in the traditional manufacturing belts in the Pearl River and Yangtze River deltas are staying back in their home villages in the countryside due to rapid urbanisation and economic development in China's interior. The machines are unmanned due to labour shortage, according the factory management. REUTERS/Aly Song

13. Employees make fuses at a dynamite production line of a chemical plant in Huaibei, Anhui province, July 1, 2010. The pace of Chinese manufacturing growth slowed in June as government steps to cool the red-hot property market and restrain bank lending combined with uncertainty over export prospects to dampen sentiment. REUTERS/Stringer

14. An employee looks up while working along a production line in Suzhou Etron Electronics Co. Ltd's factory in Suzhou, Jiangsu province in this June 8, 2010 file photo. China may be the workshop of the world, but young rural migrant workers are less accepting than their parents were of life in the factories -- low pay, gruelling hours, and sometimes martial workplace rules. A spate of worker suicides at the tightly guarded factories that make gadgets for Apple and other electronics companies has also highlighted their plight, becoming a cause celebre for migrant workers who followed the stories online -- as well as an embarrassment to the foreign companies that depend on the plants. REUTERS/Aly Song

15. Employees work at a production line of a garment factory in Huaibei, Anhui province July 8, 2010. The International Monetary Fund upgraded its 2010 global growth forecast on Thursday, citing robust expansion in Asia and renewed U.S. private demand, but warned the euro area's debt crisis posed a big risk to recovery.

16. Employees inspect slaughtered pigs on a production line at a pork processing factory in Shenyang, Liaoning province July 15, 2010.

20. An employee installs tire rims at a factory of Zhengxing Wheel Group Co. Ltd in Hefei, Anhui province January 20, 2011. China finished 2010 with a bang, its growth soaring past expectations while inflation slowed just a touch, numbers that could prod the government to ratchet up its easy-does-it approach to tightening. Important December data, from factory output to investment, painted a picture of solid expansion, showing that the world's second-largest economy was still free from overheating, despite the surprise jump in growth.

31. A labourer drinks water at a coal processing factory in Shenyang, Liaoning province March 19, 2009. The outlook for China's industrial output growth remains weak, due in part to flagging exports, and the government should respond with a flexible currency policy including yuan depreciation, a leading government think-tank said on Thursday. REUTERS/Sheng Li

32. A worker squats on steel wire coils at a steel market in Taiyuan, Shanxi province May 14, 2009. The Chinese government is planning to crack down on steel producers that are still raising output despite a collapse in demand, Xinhua news agency reported. REUTERS/Stringer

China's annual GDP growth accelerated to 8.9 percent in the third quarter from 7.9 percent in the second quarter as all sectors of the economy, apart from exports, performed strongly.

Por si alguien le interesa saber el trabajo en China es tan buscado por las grandes compañias, debido a que no tienen que pagar mano de obra, ya que el modo en el que le pagan a los empleados es con comida y vivienda, a lo que les hace mas economico todo, pues hacen un edificio de 8 pisos, los cuales 5 es para producción y los otros 3 llenos de camarotes para que la gente duerma y coma¡¡

nemcatacoa · 23-02-2011 , 13:47:55

mandhrake · 23-02-2011 , 14:28:05

Por esta gente es que la mitad del mundo esta en crisis y la otra mitad quebrada, esta gente no es trabajadora, son esclavos, trabajan 15 horas al día, sin ningún día de descanso ni vacaciones y por miserables sueldos.

desgraciadamente eso es dificil de cambiarlo a corto plazo,
y ademas la gente tiene que buscarce la comida de alguna forma.
