Car TalkRe: Top 10 Best Heavy Duty Truck Manufacturers. (photos) by dongc(m): 10:56am On Aug 13, 2018
point of correction... Volvo trucks are owned by Volvo group...not by Chinese geely motors..

let me explain the difference geely motors acquired from fords motors the Volvo car corporations.. Volvo car corp makes just private/personal cars not trucks... this two different companies...the volvo logos are about 89% similar and both companies share responsibility in maintaining the Volvo museum.

Volvo group is 100% Swedish and they own Volvo construction equipment,Renault truck and Mack trucks.. ..in that case Volvo is the biggest truck company not Mack..

Jobs/VacanciesRe: Isn't The Currently Trending HR Outsourcing System A Subtle Mode Of Slavery? by dongc(m): 12:04am On Jun 09, 2018
That is the case where I live..they charge the companies not the staffs..because they provide services to the companies ..it is ridiculous Nigerians copy systems from abroad and implement the opposite at home..

JesslordKay:
Your points are valid, i would like to add the third pattern of hr outsourcing where the service provider don't have to deduct the salary of their staff working for their client. Here, the outsourcing firm charge management fee per staff they provide for their client. With this, they don't have to deduct any dime from the staff salary.

Secondly, there exist a possible chance of staffing some of the outsourced staff that have prove diligent knowledgeable of the job.

Thirdly, outsource role give opportunity to less experience individuals to garner experience which can land them a better offer tomorrow.
Jobs/VacanciesRe: Isn't The Currently Trending HR Outsourcing System A Subtle Mode Of Slavery? by dongc(m): 9:29pm On Jun 06, 2018
it totally depends on what the agreement say..here in sweden they are so many companies like that he specializes in hiring out staffs to companies either for short or long terms..even at volvo where i work we have so many loans staffs like that..here is the twist the government or the unions requires these outsourcing companies to employ the staffs they loan out full time at maximum of six months; meaning after six month at outsourcing company ,you are guaranteed a full time salary and benefits .loan staffs that work in my department gets paid almost same salary as me .every now and then those loans staffs get to move over and work directly for the company they are sent.
this is where the labour union comes in ,but as you can guess they are busy doing nothing and people are been used and paid peanuts..

A lot of musicians do not normally tour alone..they don't play 3-4 hours set ..they all have other musicians with them sometimes..i am going to see Eminem july 02, he has with him Ed Sheeran, Alicia Keys, Pink ...does it mean these other ones cannot fill stadiums??
CelebritiesRe: #LazyNigerianYouth: Starboy Wizkid Just Sold Out 20,000 Capacity 02 Arena by dongc(m): 11:48am On May 19, 2018
People should know the difference between 02 academy and 02 arena..
02 academy is in Midlands Birmingham with capacity of 3000 while 02 arena is in Greenwich area london with ccapacity of 20000..
With all those big names on that ticket it is very easy to sell out....
Nothing to celebrate sorry..
PhonesRe: Glo Introduces Glo 2 Submarine Cable For High Speed Data And Browsing by dongc(m): 5:09pm On Apr 26, 2018
nextstep:
... and what network do you think MTN et al use to access Facebook, Nairaland, or Google servers? Glo-1 and MainOne. They get tons of revenue from all the operators that run data over their lines, even if "their cellular network is slow".

Have you seen the number of fiber lines between UK and USA? Or Japan and USA?[b] Each one done by different companies and consortiums over the years. I'm very proud that one private Nigerian company will soon have two self-funded fib[/b][b][/b][b][/b]eroptic submarine cables.


i do not agree that having many makes it better ..main has a capacity of 1280 Gbit/s .. running ten sub marine cables of 40gbsits does not show improvement.. companies need to build and utilize almost max capacity..how many fiber lines are running through europe ? https://www.submarinecablemap.com/

The ACE (African Coast to Europe) submarine communications cable is a cable system along the west coast of Africa between France and South Africa managed by a consortium of 19 operators & administrations headed by Orange


Atlantis-2 design capacity 160 Gbit/s
Currently lit capacity 40 Gbit/s

SAT-3 has a capacity of 340 Gbit/s while SAFE has a capacity of 440 Gbit/s. The SAT-3 system together with SAFE was built by a consortium of operators .[1] As of 2006, major investors included Telkom Group (about 13%),[2] France Telecom (12.08%), Nitel (8.39%); TCI, a subsidiary of AT&T Inc. (12.42%); and VSNL (8.93%).

sometimes i wonder who advises companies on investment...they are now going to spend billions on an infrastructure that is readily available..main one already has this..companies can share net with main one and cut cost... in Sweden we have top 4 biggest networks(telia,telenor,tele2,comviq all use same net...companies go joint junction in stuffs like this..but no in Nigeria everyone should open the road and install fiber optics one after another...the same for electricity ..same grid and channel but different provider....our country stuck 40 years behind
AutosRe: 010 Model Volvo S40 Toks @2.7m SOLD!! SOLD!!! by dongc(m): 10:36pm On Apr 18, 2018

After the flooding in Houston, a lot of cars showed up in the market. They look nice and shiny after serious detailing. I know a lady who is cursing the day she bought a Totoya Corolla 2015. When the mechanic opened the dashboard, it was a mess. It will cost less to buy a new one than to get that car running right again. Cheap price is not always what it seems. Insurance adjusters have ways of determining if a car is a total loss or not(of course considering that cost of labour in US is on a very high side).

Volvo products are notorious for transmission and electrical problems. If the OP hasn't paid for this S40, I will advise that he stay away from it.

as long as you do not have any well known scientific and industry backed records ...this is as vague and porous as it gets..any car irrespective of brand can develop faults even brand new cars.either malfunction or mechanical issues..Volvo is a good product ,well maintained would last and sustained as long as one wants ..for 6 years was a line operator/tech at torslanda building the v40s,v60s,v40 cross country even the newer xc90 before i moved to volvo ce..i am not sure of any underlying problems with a particular model or Volvo in total.. please be calm when making such statement

Car TalkRe: Inside The Innoson Vehicle Manufacturing Plant As You Have Never Seen It Before by dongc(m):
NwaNimo1:
Looks like an 'assembly line' to me......... what's actually being manufactured in the pics?

Components being put together = assembly.

Components being made from raw materials = manufacture.

Credit to the man though....., him de try but he doesn't actually manufacture cars - he assembles them!
I work at volvo trucks..mostly we do are assembly with our oem products..over 100,000 suppliers of different products..we don't produce every bits..our engine parts are manufactured by other divisions in volvo companies and suppliers..companies dont normally make everything..there are many companies involved..

PoliticsRe: Reps Appropriated N2billion For Ajaokuta Concessioning- Minister by dongc(m): 8:48pm On Mar 09, 2018
I know What that means..they tried to sell it before concessions attempts..how about joint ventures like I mentioned..outright government ownership with credible people running..ppp has always been a smoke screen...they milk the government and people..

mfm04622:
It is not being sold. It is being concessioned. Mean we rent it out. After the time of rent, they either renew or it becomes ours back. Why is the lady interested in Nigeria spending on it when private funds can be invested. The Trump she mentioned, was she told any of the steel plant is owned by the US?
PoliticsRe: Reps Appropriated N2billion For Ajaokuta Concessioning- Minister by dongc(m): 4:08pm On Mar 09, 2018
so if there is 14 interested companies..that means there is goldmine there..why not take on one of them as joint ventures just like they do with oil wells? must it be sold before it is operated..or are there vested interest that makes it concession only or not..there is something missing ..

Unknown brand like geely taking over big popular brands like Mercedes-Benz and Volvo. That's how Indian company TATA took over land rover/range rover in the tech industry its the opposite, Facebook is the one swallowing small companies.
they are not unknown..geegly is just parent company..they just bought a stake 10% no where close to controlling stake....they own volvo by buying a controlling stake..

i thought also his story was a bit of smoke screen..no doubt he was bold and brave to try... but there were alot of things he didn't say... why need edgar while his father is 10x edgar.. why did he not mention his father as the mentor so we wouldn't say he went back because he needed help anyways ..its shame with all his experience and skill would have been perfect for his family businesses ..how much is he in debt after all trials..he pays all those ..his father..
