China will have cheap labor for at least another 50 years. This gives China a huge edge over other developing countries, and is a strong incentive for establishing local production in China.

They are formed in China with joint capitals by foreign companies, enterprises, other economic organizations and individuals with Chinese companies, enterprises, other economic organizations and individuals.

       7. The Reasons of Your Company should be in China:

1). Access to Domestic Market. In many industries, the only way to access Chinese markets on a level playing field is to have a presence here. The reasons for this are the lower production costs, control of sales channels and shorter lead times, etc. In some cases only by developing markets today can one best target latent markets that are currently developing.

2). To Match Competitors. If one’s competitors are active in this market, then it may not be a good idea to cede this market to them. Establishing a China presence does not have to come with a large investment, and does not have to be all at once. Starting small, and then gradually expanding one’s presence is both feasible and in many cases desirable.
