Foxconn Technology Group has asked hundreds of Chinese engineers and technicians to return home from its iPhone factories in India, dealing a blow to Apple Inc.’s manufacturing push in the South Asian country. It’s not immediately clear why Apple’s biggest iPhone assembler sent the workers home. Earlier this year, officials in Beijing verbally encouraged regulatory agencies and local governments to curb technology transfers and equipment exports to India and Southeast Asia in what is a potential attempt to prevent companies from shifting manufacturing elsewhere. The change comes at a bad time for Apple, as it is preparing to ramp up production of the new iPhone 17 with its manufacturing partners in India. Foxconn is in the process of building a new iPhone plant in southern India. Can this be linked to the new US foreign policy against China ?
