As mentioned, India has always been the number one outsourcing/offshoring destination but the year 2006 have revealed a stronger force which could overthrow India's rule. What am I talking about? China.

China is becoming a major player because of the manufacturing jobs being moved in this country. Aside from manufacturing, China also aims to be the next best thing in outsourcing and they are now doing the necessary steps in achieving this goal.

Chinese workers are now trained to be fluent in English and facilities are now being prepared to cater the outsourcing market. In terms of salary wages, its rate are no different from the salary rates in India.

2006 showed China's efforts in achieving their goal. In 2007, maybe they could reap the result of their efforts.
