Actually u check your japanese brands items made in where or not? I check iphone made in china. Even the kyosho controls cars I got recently also made in china. I think I have to design make my own control using wood if I want it made in sinkapore
these international brands are okay to buy
they are not really fully MIC...their ciritical parts are made in germany korea europe usa and shipped to china to assemble only cus labour there is cheap...they also have good audit systems to check their china operations to try to align to international standards as their reputation at stake so they have very strict audit check systems for china
apple does not make its screens or electronics in china for good reasons
china too corrupted environment too lousy to produce high quality goods generally speaking...same for india indonesia russia etc to some xtent malaysia
