Chinese Government Stimulating its Consumer Electronics Industry
|
|
|
The ongoing economic turmoil across the US and Europe has had a severe impact on China’s export-oriented economy, which has seen several layoffs and shutting down of many factories in recent months. The consumer electronics (CE) industry is also one of the victims. Industry estimates suggest that the retail sales of consumer electronics in China will grow by merely 8%-10% in 2008, half of the growth reported in 2007. The outlook for 2009 remains uncertain.
Considering the impact of global crisis on the Chinese economy, the government rolled out a program called “Delivering Appliances to the Countryside" in December to boost its domestic CE industry. The program offers a 13% subsidy to farmers who spend their savings on refrigerators, washing machines, color televisions and cell phones. China has set huge goals and expects rural families to buy 480 Million appliances over the four-year life of the appliance program, beginning December 1, 2008.
“This move will possibly urge millions of rural residents to buy electronic appliances in coming few months, stimulating consumption and keeping the factories of CE manufacturers humming”, says an analyst at RNCOS. Also, this can also be considered as a strategic move as there remains potentially high demand for CE products in rural china when compared to the urban counterparts, added the analyst stating the figures from China national bureau of statistics.
According to the bureau, for every 100 rural households in China in 2007, there were 94 color TV sets, 26 refrigerators and 46 washing machines. This compares with 138 color TV sets, 95 refrigerators and 97 washing machines for every 100 urban households.
In line with this, “Chinese Consumer Electronics Market till 2011”, a RNCOS research, offers rational assessment of the consumer electronics market in China. The report evaluates the factors vital to the development and success of the industry. It looks into the current market scenario to present a future outlook of the market.
For the purpose of this report, the consumer electronics market has been divided into various segments, like Home Appliances, Sound & Images, Mobile Phones, and Personal Computers.

China Seeing Telecom Restructuring, Operators to Upgrade Networks
|
|
|
With a wave of restructuring in May 2008, the Chinese telecom industry is flooded with the news of Mergers & Acquisitions (M&As) among the existing telecom players. As part of the move, China Telecom has acquired the CDMA line of China Unicom, and China Unicom has been merged with China Netcom. Another incumbent operator, China Mobile, has acquired China Railcom.
“The idea behind this revamp is to allow each operator offer full telecom services, which otherwise had been dominated by broadly four players, two in fixed-line and two in Mobile. Now the three players will compete in the market with equal service base”, says a telecom analyst at RNCOS.
The three operators, China Mobile, China Telecom and China Unicom, have been planning to inject billions of dollars in expansion of their networks in the world’s biggest telecom market, says our new research “Restructuring and 3G - New Dimensions for China Telecom Sector”. Much of the investment will be required for convergence and upgradation of existing network, making it possible to offer fixed-line and mobile telephony services via existing infrastructure.
Recently, China Unicom has revealed that it would require some US$14.6 Billion over the next two years to fund the deployment of wireless infrastructure. Also, China Telecom is aggressively implementing its strategies to develop the newly acquired CDMA infrastructure. Further, 3G remains the focal of domestic telecom industry. Various industry players have already injected huge amounts in 3G infrastructure developments, and many more projects are ready to be launched.
However, opportunities are not limited to the network upgradation and extension only. The burgeoning Chinese telecom industry offers tremendous potential for various industry players, such as communication equipment vendors, IT service providers and 3G application developers.
Keeping in mind the true potential of this industry, “Restructuring and 3G - New Dimensions for China Telecom Sector” provides extensive research and rational analysis on the current developments in the Chinese telecom industry. It gives thorough analysis of the current market restructuring and its projected impact on the market.
This report helps clients to have an insight into the domestic telecom market along with status of emerging technologies and future scenario, including subscriber growth, handset sales, market share, market penetration, opportunities and market roadblocks.

Broadband Going Mainstream in Turkey
|
|
|
According to our new research on the booming Turkish telecom market, “Turkey Telecom Sector Forecast to 2012”, the number of broadband subscribers in Turkey grew at a CAGR of more than 65% during 2005-2007. This growth rate is higher than that reported by the Internet subscribers (44%) during the same period. Broadband subscribers accounted for nearly 93% of Internet subscribers at the end of 2007 compared with 71% in 2005.
The factors which have led to the transition of subscribers from dial-up Internet access to broadband such as ADSL (Asynchronous Digital Subscriber Line) include the effectiveness of technology in meeting consumer needs at relatively low cost, and new investments by Turk Telecom (TT) in its infrastructure expansion.
Currently, the market for ADSL services is dominated by TT’s wholly-owned subsidiary TTnet, representing around 95% share of the retail ADSL access market in Turkey based on the number of access lines at the end of 2007.
Given the rapid rate of Turkey’s economic growth and lack of mobile broadband services due to the absence of 3G and WiMAX, the broadband sector is anticipated to see strong demand from both consumer and corporate sectors in future. Apart from this, growth of service sector amid increasing computer penetration and declining prices will lead to increasing broadband penetration. But fair competition needs to be established to ensure healthy growth and consumer benefit, says the research.
As a result, broadband subscriber penetration is projected to exceed 19% through 2012.
“Turkey Telecom Sector Forecast to 2012” provides extensive research and prudent analysis on the evolving telecom market of Turkey. It thoroughly discusses the current market situation highlighting the factors which are triggering the growth. İt also evaluates the reasons hindering the market growth.
Our research gives four year market forecast for various telecom segments such as mobile, fixed-line, Internet, broadband and computers along with their penetration, taking into account the past and current trends. Various technologies, like IPTV and WiMAX, that are emerging on the ground have also been discussed, providing their significance in the Turkish telecom sector.

US - Potential Export Destination for Low-cost Steel
|
|
|
The US primarily depends on steel imports to fulfill its demand as domestic production remains insufficient to fulfill domestic demand. And according to Our new research report, “US Steel Industry Outlook”, with inventories at low levels at the beginning of the year 2008 and sharp increase in price by domestic mills, the US will remain a hot export destination for low cost economies in near future.
According to the report, the impact of slowing economy is clearly visible on the US steel industry. Crude steel production in the country declined by 0.4% to 98.2 Million Metric Tons whereas crude steel consumption slipped radically by 4.6% reaching an estimated 123 Million Metric Tons in 2007. Though the consumption fall significantly, the production level is still not sufficient to match up the demand. This has further widened the demand-supply gap in the country, making it more reliant on imports to fulfill its domestic demand.
From future perspective, crude steel consumption in the US is forecasted to reach 125 Million Metric Tons in 2009. Steel consumption will be largely driven green & clean energy-related infrastructure because there is huge investment in pipeline in wind, solar and nuclear energy by the US government. In contrast to consumption, its production will only reach 101 Million Metric Tons in the same year. To fill the gap, the country will have to import more steel from other countries.
“US Steel Industry Outlook” contains unique market-based research and provides thorough and prudent analysis on the US steel Industry. It provides extensive statistical and analytical outline on the US Steel industry and gives past, present and future data on its structure, composition and working. The research study intensively discusses the new avenues and challenges that are anticipated to stem both within and from the US steel industry in future.
The research also provides forecast on major industry parameters and help clients in identifying critical opportunities to leverage from.

What is Postoperative Pain?
|
|
|
Postoperative pain is defined as an acute or chronic pain that is experienced after an operation or surgical procedure. While significant strides have been made in medicine in this regard, postoperative pain management can be quite difficult, especially in situations where the body sustained some physical trauma due to the operation itself. After extremely invasive procedure's, it is to d safe to say that nearly all patients experience some degree of postoperative pain — however, the severity will dictate what kind of treatment the medical staff will provide while the patient is hospitalized. If postoperative pain persists upon release from the hospital, pain medications and physical therapy treatments may have to continue for some time on an outpatient basis.
What are the symptoms Postoperative Pain
The primary symptoms of postoperative pain often involve sensations and soreness round the surgical site or sites. Persistent postoperative pain that doesn't go away with treatment and increasingly gets worse may be caused by a serious infection. If the surgical site is hot to the touch as well, consider it an emergency situation, and seek the attention of a medical professional right way. The most common symptoms of postoperative pain are burning, throbbing, itching, swelling, tenderness, bruising and general discomfort at or around the surgical site. Sometimes the site can become hard and sensitive to the touch. In some cases, pain can be accompanied by chills, fever, disorientation and vomiting. Should these symptoms manifest, call a doctor immediately or get to an emergency room as soon as possible
What are the causes of Postoperative Pain
Any number medical and surgical procedures can be a reason for postoperative pain. For example, abdominal surgery can produce significant postoperative symptoms. This is due to the fact that almost all surgical procedures are invasive, each involving a variety of complications and relying on physician specialties. Pain is a very often a subjective experience for most patients with medication being prescribed only after the patient has expressed a desire to be medicated. Postoperative pain can also be caused by trauma to the area that was operated on post surgery. This trauma can be introduced by the patient themselves, who may not be aware that have injured themselves if they have been heavily medicated,
Will Painwave X4000 help with Postoperative Pain?
Yes! The Painwave X4000 is an extremely effective method that can be utilized to get rid of postoperative pain. That's because this little technological wonder is a non-invasive, drug-free method that can provide real pain relief. Unlike TENS or other similar methods of pain relief it does not ‘block’ pain signals to the brain, instead it works in concert with the body’s own bioelectromagnetic ecosystem. Painwave X4000 has absolutely no side effects, and is very simple to operate. Simply take the unit and gently glide it over the surface of the skin in a small circular motion. After a short period of time, the Painwave X4000 can greatly improve blood circulation, cell activity and lymphatic movements, all of which are beneficial in the relief of pain and other discomforts. In many cases, this stimulation will greatly reduce or eliminate pain immediately, and perhaps, permanently.
Note: These statements should in no way be used to perform a self-diagnosis If you are experiencing postoperative pain, please consult you physician for a full medical evaluation.

RNCOS Releases a New Report- Wind Power: Opportunities in Emerging Markets
|
|
|
RNCOS has recently added a new Market Research Report titled, “Wind Power: Opportunities in Emerging Markets” to its report gallery. Power is the backbone of any economy in today’s world. But the high price of fossil fuel is forcing countries to focus on renewable energy sources. So the technologically-developed countries have replaced a considerable portion of their fossil fuel power with renewable sources to sustain their concrete growth. But, according to the report, emerging countries, who have just started their journeys, too need to maintain a robust power supply because
- Most of the emerging economies are preferred destinations for industrial and manufacturing plant set up by developed countries.
- Development of power grid connectivity has boosted up the power consumption.
- Increasing population has fuelled the power requirement in developing economies.
However, rising fossil fuel prices are challenging the growth potential of these countries. Therefore, like developed countries, these nations too are adding renewable sources in their power mix.
For most of the emerging countries, wind power seems to be the best choice as it is relatively low cost than other renewable sources and is a cleaner source of energy. With technological development, wind will become a highly competitive source for power generation, creating business opportunities for manufacturing and material innovations. This, in turn, will boost the manufacturing sector of the emerging countries.
To analyze the market potential for wind industry in the emerging economies, we have selected countries based on various aspects, like market performance and power generation sources. This report also provides a brief description on key turbine manufacturing companies present in the emerging economies.
Key Findings of the Report
- Total wind power installation in People’s Republic of China is projected to cross 100 GW by the end of 2020.
- Wind power industry will be the major focus area in India during its 11th Five Year Plan.
- By the end of 2009, wind power installation in Turkey is anticipated to reach slightly less than 1 GW.
- In 2009, Brazil’s cumulative wind power installation is likely to exceed 1 GW mark.
- It is expected that the wind power generation in Poland will go beyond 26 TWH by the end of 2020.
- Egypt’s wind power installation is projected to cross 1 GW mark in 2009.

Most Important The Product Creation Blueprint!
|
|
|
Product creation is the most important skill to master if you want to thrive online. Yes, you can be an affiliate but do you really think Ewe China, the World's #1 Super Affiliate, only sells other people's products?
In fact, at the World Internet Summit Singapore 2007, Ewe stressed the importance of product creation repeatedly.
Why is product creation important?
To thrive in the world of Internet Marketing, you have to brand yourself. Creating or having your own products gives you the right to call it yours, and in so doing branding yourself in that niche you can visit www.create-video-product.com
For instance, Ewe told us at the seminar that he would blast his name everywhere from Web Banners to special reports to establish himself as an expert in the readers' minds subconsciously.
What Products Do I Create?
The law is simple but profound; give them more of what they already want.
The most effective way that I have come across is to search on e-bay, Amazon and other sites that show the existing customer spending patterns like Magazines.com.
No, I am not only looking for the best-sellers to know what content the customers want.
I am looking for:
The first two may seem trivial at first, but it is proven that the cover art compels while the titles sell not the content. Sure, a book may have good content but changing its title may increase sales by more than 200%.
Look for the top 20 Books in every niche and you will begin to see the pattern. The Best-sellers usually have some property in common – titles like "Getting Started", "30 Day Road Map", "…. In 1 Minute" or cover art that have no more than 3 colors. (It is a psychological thing.)
The most important thing here is to look for the reviews of the product. This is where the emotionally charged customers tell you exactly what they like or do not like in the product.
Again, give them more of what they want and less of what they do not.
If you decided on a Best-Seller from the recommended sites, it is almost guaranteed that there is a market for that product but just to be sure, validates your choice of product by searching for keywords in inventory.overture.com or freekeywords.wordtracker.com on that product.
What keywords do you type in? Sites like Amazon can help you – under the book cover, there is a link called "Statistically Improbable Phrases" which tells you what phrases people most passionate in the niche use.
How Do I Create My Own Product?
Now that you have found out what product you want to create, it is time to take some massive action.
There are ultimately three ways – Do-It-Yourself, buy, outsource.
D-I-Y
if you are passionate about your niche, write down a list of what you would like to know about the topic and the reviews from the first step. Write about what the customers want and you are 100% safe.
Another way is not to gather the information through research yourself but to ask the writers their opinions on topics – especially what the customers want to know. You can have that recorded in audio or transcribed and sold off as your main or bonus product.
Buy
Chances are, there are some books out there that already have what you are looking for, gathering dust due to poor marketing. Get in touch with the author and ask if you could buy the Rights to the book that will allow you to change its cover, title and if possible even the author's name you can log on www.explosive-product-launches.com
Outsource
lastly, you could pay a writer to get your information product done for you at sites like Elance.com. A good E-Book can be written for about US$500 but this is the most risky option as the content may not be satisfactory to you.
You can choose to edit it, but I find it rather difficult to edit something that I did not write. There will be gaps in style, tone and sometimes even quality but if you choose this option do read the testimonials of each author.
If you have read this far, you probably want to create your product soon, so do something towards the attainment of that goal now! Product creation is a long and winding task, but take it one day at a time and you will be fine.
