..the exodus of such company relfects worsening business condition in China.

From what I see, there are no indications of an exodus, however one company's decision to relocate. The reasons for this move can be numerous, but in my experience, the larger companies will retain a portion of their production in different areas.

Therefore, the final product being shipped to Europe will have one component made in the Phillipines, one made in Malaysia, one made in Singapore, one made in China, one made in Japan, and finally assembled in Vietnam and put on a container for Germany.

This is how costs are kept down and all their eggs aren't kept in one basket...

I hear a lot of grumbling in S. Korea and Japan. If you go ahead, it is your choice. I won't be getting in the way. Just do not drag others with you. We have a different idea.
