This is an e-logbook of my reflection of current affairs, consumed news and other media. I am also documenting my thoughts on various things around me - events, people, animals, phenomena, etc. I sometimes post questions, partly to get what I think off of my chest and partly to help improve my thought process. Words are such an easy tool to use to express oneself.

Retail will forever change if multinationals continue to operate under no country's laws
We will see more and more retail companies going bust as they csnnot compete with multinational outfits that exploit tax loopholes to avoid paying corporate tax. These firms post record revenue and profit year on year in the face of local economy meltdown and job losses. They will open warehouses and hire local people but only at the very lowest level, offering minimum pay and minimal work conditions. Isn't it time when governments got wised up or moved to clamp down these rogues? And watever happened to business ethics?
