The world’s shrinking, in a manner of speaking.
If we look at the trend of end-products of technological advancement, we could almost say that the size that matters is small.
And it’s not only our gadgets that are getting smaller. The way we live, the way we work, the way we can do business is being refined to a point where we can do more with less effort. Doing small things can lead to big results.
Much in the same way how small-to-medium enterprises (SMEs) as well as private individuals are doing what the big firms and multinational companies can do, to draw on the talents and skills of the human resources from any corner of the planet through the Internet.
Welcome to the age of Myself, Co. and Yourself, Inc.,—-the one-man (and one-woman) multinationals.

Outsourcing – The Dragon and Tiger of Asia
August 5, 2008 | Leave a Comment
Ancient Taoist philosophy holds that the World is made of two opposing yet equivalent forces that are locked in an eternal, dynamic struggle to dominate each other. Through this, matter is made solid yet movement is fluid, change is constant yet there are things that can resist change.
The Taoist philosophers signified these two forces, one as the Tiger and the other force the Dragon. It appears pre-ordained that these two representations, the Tiger and the Dragon, are the national symbols of two nations who are the dynamic powers that impact and influence the business world of outsourcing: China and India.
