This is not new, and consistently comes up in articles about China. Is rob, replicate, replace used by China to unfairly compete on the international market?
1. Rob: The Chinese government forces foreign companies to do joint ventures with Chinese companies, thus forcing technological transfer to the Chinese side. Intellectual property rights in China are extremely weak.
2. Replicate: Chinese companies then learn how to manufacture these products for export.
3. Replace: Chinese companies then dissolve the joint venture, and start a new company to manufacture the same product.
Having read these books multiple times, I have found them instructional and deep in trying to understand the intent of Chinese factory owners and Chinese manufacturing in general. China’s manufacturing tactics heavily borrow from Chinese culture, which is much different in philosophy from the West.
Poorly Made in China

The author goes through stories of North American traders and their dealings with Chinese factory owners. While his trials and tribulations are interesting, some of his overall observations are enlightening.
Love Canada, I do. The people are generally very nice, though there are exceptions. In general we treat everyone equally. The air is generally very clean and the streets similarly. We have lots of green space and the kids love playing in our parks. Crime is low and we generally do not have a violence or gun problem. Our political system is very stable. Our legal system is fair and impartial.

Mary Ward Catholic Secondary School is a high school located in North Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The school is part of the Toronto Catholic District School Board, or TCDSB. These tips are primarily from a parent’s viewpoint and will cover uniform, student attitude, working with teacher adviser (TA) and a little on courses. I hope this helps new grade 9 students.
