The "Dear Dinosaurs" article (more like a rant) seems to have a bit of envy and frustration. I enjoyed it a lot.

Reminds me of Gen-Xers (generation X) wishing for the Boomer generation to leave so they can run things.

We should review this about 3 and 7 years from now and see how much has changed.

I like this line -

>>>"You want foreigners to buy your worthless debt but not your brands or your technology?"<<<

Well, the Koreans have made their own brands (Samsung, LG, and Hyundai) and some of their own technology.

What's the matter, the rest of Asia (ex-Japan) can't make their own brands and technology ?

*********

I expect some Asian companies will have some of the own brands and technology, and the ones that can't (actually won't) create will whine like this guy...

*********

Anyway, this suggests an investment strategy: at the next Asia stock drop, buy new BRANDED Asian consumer goods companies and companies with some success developing their own technology.

By saying new, that does tend to excluded many established Japanese brands, like Shisehido, Honda, Sony, etc. That might be an error in some cases.
