I disagree. Why? Simple. The main reason for not using Western labour is cost. Companies (be they Sky, VM, any of the banks etc) outsource their call centres because it appears cheaper. Car manufacturers tend to move production to countries where it is cheaper. Beyond the obvious physical differences, it is actually the same concept. Why do you think a lot of manufacturers are looking to build factories in China? It isn't because they are trying to help the Chinese. Why do you think Ford Dagenham has largely closed down and Ford have moved production of the cars it used to produce to eastern bloc countries? Because it is cheaper.
