Anthony,

On the three wheelers -- and other small vehicles -- are two-stroke engines still allowed?

China makes a lot of cars and two-wheelers. Cherry is a big company. Making cars (assembly) is not the big thing, it is sourcing components. I suspect China produces a lot of components and hence retained value should be high.

One of the most frequent questions I asked during my visit to China was about moving up the
value chain -- developing global corporations, such as South Korea has -- brand name
products that would have an appeal world-wide. Almost everybody had trouble understanding
what I was asking. I'm sure language was a problem. I speak no Chinese and most of them
spoke English. I also suspect
that part of the problem was that the question might not be posed very much within China.

I did not see that many Chinese made cars -- or American cars for that matter -- although
the press has been saying that US automakers have been successful in China. But then, I am
very unskilled in spotting cars.

My observations seemed to fit in with what Marty has been saying.
