There are many US and European companies are outsourcing not only service but manufacturing and product related jobs also, largely to China and other countries like Philippines, Malaysia etc. The debate may go on and on about whether outsourcing is good or bad for economy, but we are probably not giving enough attention to the fact that these companies are also outsourcing a large portion of their population to these third world countries.
