aight making this thread as studying vent/shitposting inside the teachings of international business.

gonna flag that it's not the most exciting thing and tend to be largely on the logistics and base mostly on the numbers game (cos capital).
subject: global supply chain and ways to strengthen their capacity after the disruption.

a lot of it is abt the efficient flow of goods/world trade between nations. as if they're not worried enough after covid and then got hit with the Suez canal fiasco.
the general consensus for this report has a focus on reduction of human labor for manual work, closing the gap of logistical efficiency, and a potential redirection/diversification of production bases.
all of those strategic moves are based upon the behavioral economic in response to government policies in the past years. as we're expecting a hit in recession + stagnant wages + inflation + the unchanged demand rates in consumption.

these corporations want to *sell* shit.
key takeaways to improve the chain:
- a redirection of "growth" in scale and strengthening the existing structure.
- automation is highly encouraged w an emphasise on software management in global tracking devices.
- a need for trade traffic block+quality supply source.
the critiques on why the chain is failing:
- a passive reaction to market demands > prompting excess of goods that would be out of management capacity.
- unrealistic ambition of geographical trading route (Suez canal block).

1/n
- lack of investment/bridging process between local and offshore supply base for a smooth delivery.
- working conditions that are proven to be detrimental to human labor that only boost productivity in a certain amount of time frame.
2/2
final verdict:
a cloggy and mindless framework which is proven to be weak, unsustainable, costly/wasteful due to an overreach goal of scale without any foundational maintenance about the meaning of trade.
