China is the most populous country in the world. Its economy is the fastest growing and ranks second only to the United States. It is no surprise that nearly forty years after the opening up of China, foreign companies are continuing to stampede into China to take advantage of China’s expanding markets for their products and services, to leverage China’s manufacturing and service base to cost-effectively meet foreign market demands, or to benefit from its vast research and development resource capabilities fueled by the millions of annual college graduates with advanced degrees.
