Message: <blockquote data-quote="ExtremeRC" data-source="post: 1008524" data-attributes="member: 520">sdf,To be frank, I do believe that there's a reason behind such mentality due to past experiences. Ermm, perhaps I should relate my experience with you guys.Recently, i've just done some material testing...to be more precise, a tensile test. To those who are unfamiliar, a 'Tensile Test' or in lame mans' term is to stretch a material till it elongates and breaks apart. This test requires a very sophisticated and expensive precision machine, which costs about half a million.We had two materials of supposingly the same kind, same composition, same processing method but the only difference is MIM - Made in Malaysia and MIS - Made in Sweden. Instructions were given to both manufacturers to produce the same thing. The results:MIM - Elongated 2 mm, fractures after 1000N of load applied to it. MIS - Elongated 9.5 mm, fractures only after 9800N of load applied to it.From the above, the MIS have a much much higher tensile strength than the MIM. Please do not doubt the credibility of the machine cos it is ISO certified and used in most factories in Germany, involved in processing. So the question here is why the big difference in the experimental results, when both are processed in the same manner, same composition?! I can only come up with a possible conclusion that the MIM is not manufactured accordingly; save time (short-cut) to save cost (electricity, water) and save materials ---> more profit. Let's imagine a local manufacturer with such attitude producing turbine for our domestic market. The outcome? Pretty obvious rite.I'm not making a general conclusion that all MIM is like that, but it appears to be a fact somehow. I dunno whether any of you watch 'NGC's Mega builders: Petronas Twin Towers', but the exact scenario took place during the construction of the Twin Towers, causing a delay in the completion, which I do believe had bring Malaysia shame worldwide.Well, don't get me wrong by saying that I do not support or give any chance to our local industry but time will tell a whole new story.</blockquote>
