Supply chain resilience is the ability
of a nation to manage its risks and disruptions in supply by diversifying its
supplier basis.
The
Indo-China border tension is raising day by day. Both governments are taking
possible actions in reducing the heat between the army. And many of the world
nations are also opposing China accusing of pandemic spread.
Yet a huge number of
these nations are also dependant on China for several diversified products. One
such is the safety masks and ventilators. China had been producing half of the
world masks even before the pandemic hit other countries. It is also the major
exporter of several pharmaceutical products.
The import and export
disruption had made many countries to realize how dependant they have grown to
china. Businesses are in hesitation about whether to continue in china even
digitally. Indian government initiated to avoid china's linkage by banning
several Chinese online software as a precaution for the safety of information.
Japan is one of the
major importer as well as exporter for China. In a focus to create supply chain
resilience from China, Japan initiated a talk with India to form a pact along
with Australia. The Japanese government has allotted $2.2 billion for the Japanese
production firms in china to move out. When India announced to increase import
tariffs from China, Japan requested not to increase the tariff for materials
that Japanese firms in India import from China. Japanese firms were ready to
increase their local procurement, but the problem is the scarcity of material
and supply quality.
The reason that
Australia could be into the pact is the clashing trades. China banned the
import of beef, barley, and wine from Australia. Prior current year Australia
agreed on working with India to diversify Supply Chain. Even if the pact is to
formed the resilience can be formed overnight and then with the success of it
other countries may also be included.
