Ironically, if you are old enough, this is actually how stores were at least 40+ years ago. Everything was at the back, and you'd fill out some forms and pass it to a clerk to help fetch them for you and then ring you up.

Wal-Mart was one of the pioneers of the "self-service" concept, they didn't think theft/"shrinkage" would be a big problem. I guess they had a good run.

That being said, Wal-Mart has always been a big supporter of technology, so this might spur some kind of service robot adoption

Pretty piss poor article but what's the point of the article? High net worth is 1 million? And most is going to Singapore, but can they actually take out their money from China?

Typical nonsense western propaganda headline anyway. For rich people everywhere, moving money out of their home country is called diversifying, expanding internationally, going global, etc. When rich people in China (and other countries the West is hostile to) do the same thing it is call capital flight and exodus.

Never understand why people still think it is a good idea to invest in India. China never forced foreign companies to appoint key executive positions as local, selling shares, giving out contracts to local inferior suppliers, using local components that don't meet the standard, or forming joint venture for no particular purpose.

Oppo, Vivo, and Xiaomi are just the worst type of companies that don't even have any backbone to make a stand.

South Korea pivots to ‘hard-line stance’ on China as Yoon questions envoy’s comments​

  • The South Korean president reportedly said on Tuesday that he doubted whether China’s ambassador, Xing Haiming, ‘has an attitude of mutual respect’
  • It comes as local media reported that Seoul was pivoting to a ‘hard-line stance’ in its China ties in response to Beijing’s ‘high-handed’ rhetoric

“Looking at Ambassador Xing’s attitude, it’s doubtful if he has an attitude of mutual respect or promotion of friendship as a diplomat,” Yoon was quoted by Yonhap as telling the meeting. “Our people are displeased with his inappropriate behaviour.”​

Hu Xijin in response wrote a few scathing commentaries of Korea under Yoon recently. Turns out the Chinese netizens are also displeased at Yoon wrote their own responses.
