@usman...
You know what...10 years ago when ppl used to say that China maal hai kachra hai...it was acceptable...
But now i think Chinese have improved over a hundred times in terms of quality!
Why?...All the reputed brands have production plants in China!...And about those who havent shifted production plants to China...I can pretty much guarantee they will in this very decade...Or they will be at loss!
All your Sony/Philips/Panasonic (Just to name a few) are engineered in Japan...but they are produced in China!
And most likely...Before the beginning of the next decade China would be "Engineering" and "producing" goods which would be competent with Japanese and German Engineered products!
