If the imported goods have same quality as the locals but cheaper, sure we could go for it. What I don’t like is paying high cost on import duties on low qualities goods, which is we what we get for China products.

For many of them, this is true. I’ve ordered so many things that were worthless, but seemed like a good price. For some other products, the quality is about the same or better.

But in some cases, it’s more a matter of no one else makes it. Use a Chinese version or go without.

Worth reading.

Your typing experience made me remember my computer experience. I joined basic computer class during my spare period between intermediate and graduation classes. I took four months class and recieved certificate After that ? I didn't have any computer nor at college or at office. As time passed, I forgot almost what I had learnt. For desert action I need typing, then I joined computer class again and started from zero. Now I computer literate.

I hear you! I had to relearn using the new technology when I started writing again. Everything seemed so much more difficult that it was in the 2010s.
