@Rhodesian_YuKari foxconn is a taiwanese cellphone assembler, they operate mostly in china. india has been on a shopping spree eating up foreign factories. this includes chinese, korean brands and iphones.

this entire thing has been ongoing since covid. where india local gov will start strikes, impose fines and mandate indian "citizens" onto the board of the local subsidary. this is an attempt into swallow the entire foreign company, assets included into becoming some kind of "india owned" thing.

Foxconn isnt stupid and has largely avoided sending their best tooling to india incase india swallows the local branch and starts competing with Foxconn with apple orders.

they are promising to send "taiwanese replacement staff" and lying about it to the indians. they accuse the chinese government of implementing the recall.

the foxconn in india does not make chips, batteries or assemble the board. they mainly CNC phone cases and do last stage assembly to avoid the "made in china" tariffs.

implications? trade war continues with india kneecapping transfer of production by america because they are greedy
