Crisis in China: Dutch business highly valued
Jorg van den Hoven literally finds himself in the middle of the Chinese economic crisis.
A video report by Radio Netherlands.Jorg van den Hoven literally finds himself in the middle of the Chinese economic crisis. His design bureau in the south develops products for western customers, produced in one of the many factories in the area. But since the start of the credit crisis, this workshop of the world is, for the first time, not running at full capacity.
A worried Mr Van den Hoven looks out of the car window.
"Everything empty, it's unbelievable."
He's on his way to two electronics factories in the district to see whether they have the material to make an electric shaver for him. Since the beginning of this year, finding the right factory has become more difficult, says the Dutch businessman.
"Many factories already closed at the beginning of January, in time for the Chinese New Year. And they've remained closed. Only in the last couple of weeks have many factories resumed their work, but they're often running with half the staff."
Here’s a current guide to health insurance, doctors, dentists and pharmacies.
