Many organisations have invested in countries with low cost of labour to produce with higher efficiency and take advantage of the strategic location and situational factors of these nations. Examples of companies are Apple, which assembles most of its iphones and ipads in China with help of Foxconn and churns them out at a lightening pace, a feat it would never be able to do back home, Nike which produces with helps of its partners in Viet Nam and Harley Davidson which has recently set up a global production hub in India to reduce the manufacturing cost of its motorcycles. Similar set up has been done by Ducati of Italy in Thailand. This stratgey has enabled them to reduce their manufacturing costs and have competitive advantage over their rivals like Samsung and Nokia ( for Apple), and Eurpoean motorcycle companies like BMW, Moto Guzzi. Aprilia and Agusta ( For Ducati).

The three manufacturing clusters are

Guangdong in China ( electronic components like mobile phones, laptops personal computers, machinery and appliances) where thousands of small and big manufacuring and assembly plants operate which supply to global gaints like Samsung, Apple, IBM, Dell and local companies like Huawei.

Dhaka in Bangladesh - This cluster for knitted garments is a fast emerging place for find knitted textiles and is hub for many global retail companies like Gap, Diesel, G star Raw, Calvin Klein among others.

Hu Chi Minh city in Vietnam ( shoe and sports goods cluster) - This cluster is known to produce sport shoes, garments and accessories for sports. The maon players are the fully own subsidiaries and partners of global companies like Nike, Adidas, Asics and New Balance among others.

solid white lines mean stay in your lane.

yellow lines separate traffic moving in opposing directions.

hashed or broken yellow lines mean you can carefully pass, paying attention to oncoming traffic.

never cross a solid yellow line (or double yellow line).

when turning left at an intersection, pass in front of any cars that are turning left from the opposing direction (do not try to pass behind them).

use the left lane to pass other cars traveling your direction.

do not pass in the right lane unless absolutely necessary.

if you are driving in the far left hand lane and someone would like to pass you, move over to the right lane when it is safe to do so and allow them to pass.

you must always yield to pedestrians.

come to a complete stop whenever you see pedestrians trying to cross the street.

never pass a school bus if it has flashing red lights. wait until the lights have stopped.

be aware of bicyclists. often they share the road with cars and are supposed to also follow general traffic laws.

be particularly careful about driving in cities with bike lanes -- always check before turning that a bike is not coming.

it is mandatory to pull over or stop at an intersection to allow an emergency vehicle to pass you if you see one traveling with lights flashing and/or a siren running.

do not overuse your car horn. horns are used almost exclusively for emergency situations or for when you feel unsafe.
