The challenge is the low cost manufacturing platform with huge economies of scale just next door – the issue is China. Samsung already has already has 29 plants and 50,000 workers in China.

Since China is already starting to manufacture stuff like machine tools that the South Koreans were busily exporting in 2003 and 2004, South Korean planners believe it must quickly transform itself into a finance, communications and transportation hub – akin to the role of Singapore or Switzerland.

- Share Yourself with Others! Start with a SMILE. It works.

Smile at a person you pass on the street, smile and wave at a neighbor; smile and greet your pet at the door; smile at your waiter and leave a really big tip because you're having a great day; smile and start a conversion with the cashier; smile when you pick up the phone, the caller will hear it in your voice, And on and on!!
