In my morning readings on Yahoo the layoffs are already happening: one article talked of hundreds being let go in the mining industry, the Korean leader is locked in a struggle with union leaders over job losses in industries that must be pared back to stay competative, Malaysia ordering finance companies to merge, the two big Swiss banks merging, those several Japanese companies which have filed for reorganization already. The layoffs have begun and will get worse. The asian countries don't seem to be as keen on announcing how many to be layed off as the U.S is. Regards, Ron
