Think of the “great” Aussie companies that, in their infinite wisdom, decided it was cheaper to make their papertowels, undies, or lawnmowers offshore (China!)

Not just talkin Australia either! Will be the same worldwide... Such is our dependence on the mighty “MADE IN CHINA” moniker!

My opinion.... If this virus shuts down China for another 3 or 4 months, we are ALL in dire straits!!
One of our suppliers has indicated that they're up the creek without a paddle at the moment, they can't get anything made.

Bring on the chaos, a little pain is good for you.
