I am curious, why not japan or South Korea? Or even Taiwan, which google is now opening offices there?

Google has offices in Shenzhen, too. And one could debate whether Taiwan is a country or part of China.

But that aside, the pull seems to be China's incentives and access to local hardware manufacturing. Not just the idea of living in Asia instead of the West.

At least we can while we're in the west

And lower pay overall
