The Sun King - China

March 2007
These days, just about everyone accepts that the world's truly big economic story is the phenomenal rise of China, so it is surprising that the richest man in mainland China - worth a cool $3 billion and still counting - is not Chinese, he's Australian. Well, Australian-Chinese! We profile a tycoon whose solar-powered vision for that vast nation is based on years of research he did here in the West. Indeed, the Sun King is convinced his business plan could actually change the world.

You are defintely wrong. Now some low-skill factories has been moved from China to some other countries, like Vietnam. The reason is that Chinese workers require too high salary.

Some high-tech jobs in China are actually well paid even in western standard. You can see a lot westerners working in China now.

It's because they have the most amount of people...figure out 1.3 billion with 1800 US dollars, that is still higher than the US overall.

I think he has some good ideas about solar energy. But it seems that China's demand for fossil fuel is going to grow for the next couple of years.

Instead of just feeding his employees once. He should pay them better, China is the lowest paid people in the world...
