Apple manufacturers want to exit China

“GoerTek is investing an initial $280 million in a new plant in Vietnam, and is also considering an expansion in India,” said Deputy CEO Kazuyoshi Yoshinaga.
According to the publication, 9 out of 10 of Apple’s most important suppliers may be preparing large-scale moves from China, for example, to India. But Bloomberg Intelligence estimates that it could take about eight years to move only 10% of Apple’s capacity outside of China, although the GoerTek chief says it will be much faster.
Over the past few weeks, four suspicious objects have already been shot down over North America, which they called spy balloons.
On February 4, the US military shot down a Chinese balloon that had been flying over US territory for almost a week. According to them, the device collected intelligence.
