Executives at a manufacturing company I formerly worked for hashed out 10 year plan due to COVID.
Step 1 get out of China asap. By going to Malaysia or Vietnam.
Step 2 start working on a presence in West Africa to be setting up shop by 2028. That will help avoid wage growth that likely happens in Malaysia and Vietnam.
I was asked to help lead pieces of that transition to Malaysia. Was so icky. They talked about "labor" like the proposed employees weren't even people. Just tools to utilize.
That's why it's called "human resources", you get it now
