VIEWER DISCRETION ADVISED: In explaining why Apple continues make its phones in China, Tim Cook said these - please read to the end:
“There's a confusion about China. The popular conception is that companies come to China because of low labor cost. I'm not sure what part of China they go to, but the truth is China stopped being the low-labor-cost country many years ago. And that is not the reason to come to China from a supply point of view. The reason is because of the skill, and the quantity of skill in one location and the type of skill it is…
He continues,
“The products we do require really advanced tooling, and the precision that you have to have, the tooling and working with the materials that we do are state of the art. And the tooling skill is very deep here. In the U.S., you could have a meeting of tooling engineers and I'm not sure we could fill the room. In China, you could fill multiple football fields.
Me: This is the easiest way to ensure and insure the future of a nation - over-equipping the future generation. China has sufficiently done this. And it wouldn’t be an understatement to call China a country - in fact, a thinking one at that.
And how’s Nigeria equipping her own future generation? Thuggery, robbery, bribery, brigandage, fraud, “yahoo +” human sacrifices for money, etc. These vices have been robustly handed down to the future generation of Nigerians to an end that even at high school and college levels, students take dark lessons on how to operate in these dangerous and criminal dimensions upon graduation. In all honesty, it’s not just fair to say that Nigeria as currently constituted doesn’t have a future at all, it actually doesn’t qualify to be called a country, by my own judgement.
In the video below, 👇🏾 this young woman almost got ritually sacrificed for money by an obviously young Nigerian (future generation) man. Tell me where the future is, if young men like these believe the shortest cut to wealth and greatness is ritual human sacrifice and the girls think “hook up” is a wiser option. If someone had tried to dissuade that girl, she probably would’ve insulted them.
Super shameful to say the least.
I just remembered my Sister’s story. Feel led to share. Years after marriage, my sister & her husband didn’t have kids. They tried IVF but it failed. They just wanted to be parents, so they decided to adopt and started the process.
