either made in China or fake, either it will last or it won't, the koko be say dey no depend on anybody to feed but we here, we depend on american sites for things eg facebook for chating, youtube for watching videos, google for chating etc, depend on China for substitute goods, depend on germany for beatiful cars, on japan for reliable cars etc.

thanks to Osewa for creating this site even though the site might not have change in design for many years and we still dey use am. If not for him, am sure, na one american forum we go dey use ( I know what am saying, am also a programmer ).

Let's join head together and tell the world we are also advance by matching them.

You might argue, China is not innovative. Yes, they ain't but they match them for anything they create

It has more traffic than Twitter.
Unfortunately, most of the black race is programmed to believe that life started and ended with West.
Until you venture to South East Asia.

Twitter is still far more profitable. West has given the world much. What has China or the whole Asia given to the whole world? Global relevance is better than local dominance in this 21st century. South Korea is doing great because of their alliance with the west. Hunger prevails in North Korea and China seems helpless. Chinese businessmen will rather hold their fortunes in dollars because of stability and not in Yuan.

Chinese government has a way of throwing their weight behind most of their indigenous establishments so as to compete in the global world.

In China one important thing about their economic policy is that you must partner with an an indigenous company in China or establish in China before you will be able to market your products in China.

Zuckerberg would have been the world's richest man if he had agreed to these terms. He refused so Chinese government blocked Facebook then sponsored Baidu to provide similar services like Facebook.
Premium automobile brands and models are the most victims of this policy. Once you refuse to produce a well appraised auto brand or model in China then you must be ready to brace yourself because their local industries will come up with counterfeits that look exactly like yours but surprisingly priced at a fraction of your precious original..
They have Chinese version of premium cat models like BMW x6, Rolls Royce, Bentley Continental etc. When you see them approaching or parked you'd think they ate the original only to discover that they have funny names like Qingdao, Xinjiang etc

Very well said. But hard to trust the Chinese... They always backstab in such cases..... In the short or long run

Used here is not just one. Like about 50pieces. I have a feeling that used i-products would create a faster and larger market because being used and all, its cheaper and thus affordable to all. Just thinking tho.

i recognise they are doing well but don't also forget these are stolen ideas. They are only succeeding because of their huge population and the dictatorship form of governance they have. Limiting access to global internet creating lack of choice is not democratic and many people in many nations would resist it but not in China

Some times we just talk because we hear others and follow follow to echo the same.

Where are the made in Nigeria goods?

Can we mention Nigerian manufactured technologies, e.g. electronics alternatives, cars, etc. which are available and Nigerians preferred foreign imports.

Also from the examples given all the time, the chinese copies of brand name products are sometimes three times less than the original product. Please can you mention any untested Nigerian product that its price is ridiculously less than the foreign one. wink wink wink

My brother you are correct. It is not far fetched, just look at all the cars, jeeps and buses almost all similar designs.

It is only Iphone that have been suing others for copying their designs. I wonder how many such design cases can be resolve for cars. wink wink wink

Nigerians just echo what ever one person says "buy 9ja to grow 9ja."
The question is how many mainstream tech products are manufactured in Nigeria? practically none.

It is a well know fact that builders prefer Nigerian electrical cables to import cables. People still purchase them even as they are more expensive.
The same applies to the current ceiling material - PVC. People prefer to buy Nigerian made which is more expensive than the Chinese product.

When you have quality products people will buy, but when you quality is not up to the imported and you are selling at same price, nobody will buy. wink wink wink

I'm not surprised by this news. China has a population of over 1.3 billion people! Its massive population consumes more local contents then foreign ones that's why China is making more billionaires than any other country in the world. I respect China's visionary leaders for steering China out of poverty. China used to be a country of straw-hat wearing people on rickety bicycles and rickshaws. But today all that has changed. Today, China has become the world's largest car market. The world's best FDI. The world's fastest growing economy - an economic that has been forecast to overtake that of the U.S. in a few years time. The U.S., being the world's largest economy is still way ahead of China in so many areas, but folks, let's give China the respect due it for all the strides it has made and still making since it opened up of its economy about thirty-nine years ago. For some people on this forum who are apt to scream "Chinko product no dey last", may I ask you what visible progressive achievements our great nation has registered since gaining independence? To the "Chinko no dey last" crew, do you know the world's fastest supercomputer is in China? The computer was built by Chinese engineers using locally made precessors/chips
http://www.computerworld.com/article/3085483/high-performance-computing/china-builds-world-s-fastest-supercomputer-without-u-s-chips.html.
So, folks, rather than come online to yell "Chinko" this, "Chinko" that, let's bind together to yell at our leaders and 'polithiefians' for their massive looting of our nation's treasury, their incompetence and gross mismanagement of the economy. Let's stop ridiculing the achievements of the Chinese for they're not the cause of the economic woes our nation is in. They can choose to create their own version of Twitter, Google, WhatsApp or even Orijin and Olomo Bitters if they like. That's their cuppa, not ours. What Nigerians should be concerned about are the things our leaders are doing -their endless stealing, blatant corruption, ineptitude and wastefulness of resources.

Are you aware that protection over most patents have expired and they are in the public domain? Meaning that all a country needs to do is to apply to the world Intellectual property organisation and it will be permitted to use this patents. So don't be fast to say stolen ideas. Borrowed ideas is more apt. And in any case stealing to better your economy and people is great unlike here where they steal to impoverish the nation and despoil our common patrimony and stash it abroad thereby enriching the oyibo man economy.

China is gradually taking over the world while doubters keep doubting and wondering.




China has manufactured and launched their own national carrier; I mean their own aeroplane purely built by Chinese Engineers, not the one Rolls Royce and GE produces the engine for others, they built everything by themselves. 



China ti take oversmiley

No sir, check the records, the engine supplier to the aircraft is GE of America, but that is not to take anything away from them.

I'm sorry, you should have read "my poor Nigeria" in context. It means both that we don't really have Made in Nigeria goods and the fact that we hardly patronise such goods.
