I don't see how the term globalization suits only Western multinationals. The term was coined as a guide for all nations participating in business. If it was designed for only western nations then foreign schools would not have let me enroll for an internatioal business degree, infact the very mention of globalization in africa would have been forbidden.

The truth is most of our indigenous companies can not compete on a global scale so they settle for a home market presence till they get pushed out of the market by leading international brands.

Don't blame the new competitor, blame the government for not supporting indigenous companies and blame those companies for remaining stale, even mediocre is most cases.



Globalization causes unemployment in industrialized countries because firms move their factories to places where they can get cheaper workers.
Globalization may lead to more environmental problems. A company may want to build factories in other countries because environmental laws are not as strict as they are at home. Poor countries in the Third World may have to cut down more trees so that they can sell wood to richer countries.
Globalization can lead to financial problems . In the 1970s and 80s countries like Mexico, Thailand, Indonesia or Brazil got a lot of money from investors who hoped they could build up new businesses there. These new companies often didn’t work, so they had to close down and investors pulled out their money.
Some of the poorest countries in the world, especially in Africa, may get even poorer. Their population is not as educated as in developed countries and they don’t have the new technology that we do.
Human, animal and plant diseases can spread more quickly through globalization.


Many experts say that we need a different kind of globalization in our world today. There must be ways to make sure that all countries profit from the good sides of globalization. We should help poorer countries by giving them better education and showing them how new technology works.


Thank me for this lecture

That's the most annoying thing

They will condenm masquerade and yet go for Halloween
Then love mascot


I wonder why we are like this

What Netflix is doing iroko TV can do

Let me ask you. Will you love to pay for a substandard product or service?

Nollywood offers no or little quality films. They have serious work to do to win the love people had for them back. Until they sit up the likes of Netflix will have major so in internet video streaming.

Don't use the music industry as comparison because the artists drop quality works that goes toe to toe with their foreign counterparts.

Not quite true, mate.

Look at Nigeria's music industry 15 years ago and compare it with what we have now. You'll notice there's been some improvement. This is cos govt promoted music at the local scene.
Yes. I remember this clearly. Around 2006 or a little later; radio stations were ordered to play 90% Nigerian content.
So why didn't it happen for movies? The movies of today have shown no improvement from the ones of the early 90s. The only difference of which not in all cases is video quality - a few are now shot in HD.

What we're listening to right now is only a reflection of what kinda people we are and what we want to hear.

So using this context we can conclude the average Nigerian still demands to watch a low budget movie which always has an angle of demonic possession, lack of or most times amateur lighting, screaming instead of concealed microphones and terrible over-exaggerated acted expressions?

I like your angle, you've got a point. A strong one. But producers still make those kind of movie because people buy them. If someone makes an action Nigerian movie with all the fight scenes and film tricks, patronage for those weak movies will drop sharply. Even a good movie with great acts and a great storyline will sell.

Imagine how much a blockbuster Nigerian movie made in Nigeria would make in the cinemas(alone)?

It takes a lot of money to make those kinds and its a risky one. At the moment few are willing to take the plunge.

If intelligent local producers are encouraged by FG and are sure they won't loose their money to pirates et al I'm sure they'll give it a try.

When the Taiwan and Chinese were producing initially we all called theirs substandard... Now where are they now

I will pay for substandard goods ...this will be a form of encouragement.. With time they will be better


But you Nigerians will love to reap where we didn't sow...we are been laughed at....if you travel outside Africa you will understand this

I am always ashamed with African mentality like this ....the same mentality of yours is why you will call Nigerian products igbo made



I will pay for the substandard good so as to encourage them


This is one thing some people are tired of been Nigeria ....its this attitude and with this attitude we can't develop....in 20 yrs time our economy will be run by foreigners and it will be a shame ...where as we will be happy collecting 10% tax and royalties...that's if they declare their profits


Then they will take the bulk of the money home ..making us slaves in our own countries ...Asians are doing that already


What a shame

What you did was equivalent to quoting a bible verse in a discussion without explanation how it relates to the matter at hand.
You did not show how the writeup relates to Netflix or other multinationals, it was only an ambiguous epistle akin to something someone finds on wikipedia.

Against Popular belief that Netflix is awaste of funds, trust me, with teh basic plan after registration (http://www.techsonite.com/netflix-nigeria-registration-netflix-movie-download-and-signin/) You get access to UNLIMITED MOVIES!

Besides, your first month is free!!!! No harm in trying from there.

Just as already mentioned, there are lots of things to watch on Netflix, the question is, " Do you have the time to spare on Netflix? However, if you really don't wish to waste time going through the categories, to find what to watch on Netflix, that means already have a particular movie or TV show to watch in mind.
