#SupplyChains #India needs to work indipendently with #USA and #China to separate the supply chains headed in the two directions and try to shift as much of them as possible to India https://twitter.com/IndoPac_Info/status/1127990488852623360
3/n #SupplyChains This is the final opportunity for making India a manufacturing hub, & bring manufacture jobs to India. It would be tragic if we miss this opportunity. I suggest that the new Govt appoint a #MOS(Supply Chains)in @PMOIndia to attract Global supply chains to India.

35/n #SupplyChains #India has few of the limitations of #Vietnam (size of otential labor force-unskilled, Demi-skilled & skilled) and lacks a few of the advantages(eg inability to dispose of redundant workers) (cc @PiyushGoyal) https://twitter.com/cnbci/status/1143534260432855043?s=21
36/n Deterioration in Global manufacturing ( https://twitter.com/ihsmarkitpmi/status/1145709896693932033?s=21 ) make it more urgent for #India to undertake reforms (4/n, 5/n) for attracting #FDI in #SupplyChains
37/n #SupplyChains Indian Govt must go out & grab these opportunities ( https://twitter.com/amitabhk87/status/1145898631158849538?s=21 ) by setting up a specialized focused group to contact all such companies & work with them to clear road blocks to shifting production to India!

44/n #SupplyChains on move from #China to #Vietnam .

47/n #SupplyChains #CEZ = #Coastal #Employment #Zones are a great idea. 3+2 such zones near #Ports are feasible, 3 almost done, 2 in process. But one could also convert 5 largest SEZ’s (out of 500) in the interior of cntry, near #Airports into #Special #Employment #Zones = #SEZs

54/n #SupplyChain Only #India has the potential to replace #China as the “Factory to the World”. Only, thing we lack is Economic leadership of kind we have seen on National Security & Foreign Policy: https://twitter.com/wsj/status/1164190445037113344?s=21
55/n @SupplyChains These are the kind of labor intensive industries #India can still attract from #China if we get our act together quickly: https://twitter.com/robert_spalding/status/1164371936996220929?s=21
56/n #SupplyChains Once in a generation opportunity still waiting ( https://twitter.com/ncuscr/status/1164936813271814144?s=21 ) Get labor laws right & replace Socialist Bureaucracy in #Coastel #Economic #Zones ( #CEZs) and 5-6 large #Special #Employment #Zones ( #SEZs) in interior States, with #Egovernance
57/n #SupplyChains Heard yesterday that Chemical Industry (in Gujrat) has 3x pre-tariff war orders, but because production is limited by pollution control license, even industrial estates with pollution control equipment can't expand production without approval from NGT!
58/n A joint effort to move #US #SupplyChains from #China to #India can produce massive gains for both countries (Win-win) and transform economic relations.

59/n #TariffWar created uncertainty, which reduces investment & induces changes that will minimize the risk. One of these is to reorder #SupplyChains to minimize the negative effect of TariffWar & of US measures to protect #IP from theft by #CCPchinaInc https://twitter.com/gzeromedia/status/1165444444289736706?s=21

61/n Today's FDI reforms will help #SupplyChains shift to #India, on margin, but we have long way to go to compete with Vietnam https://shrts.in/5hSa
62/n Example of my general point
on competitiveness of #India vs #Vietnam in attracting #SupplyChains https://cnb.cx/348ip3O => We must provide competive labor laws-rules-procedures & bureaucratic environment in #CEZs & large #SEZs

63/n India's competitors for Labor Intensive exports & efficient import substitution (goods, processes & parts of #SupplyChains): https://twitter.com/mckinsey_mgi/status/1167041966472933376?s=21

66/n But the competition for #SupplyChains is stiff https://twitter.com/curtisschin/status/1166188532135686144?s=21 , so our policy & institutions must promote competitiveness (see thread at 4-5/n)

78/n Despite worse indicators ( http://dravirmani.blogspot.com/2019/10/supply-chain-competitiveness-indias_25.html?m=1 ) why do manufacturing firms prefer #Vietnam? Possible reasons - Red carpet for KEY firms in supply chain which will attract/bring in other firms in chain & have demonstration effect. https://twitter.com/trinhnomics/status/1187704439622135808?s=21 cc @PiyushGoyal
