Japan Outsources Data Center Work to China

There's an advantage to the Chinese being able to read the Japanese characters...most of them anyway.

One of Japan's leading temporary staffing agencies, Tempstaff Co., has opened a data center in China. When all is said and done, 220 people will be working for Japan at the new place in Suzhou.

Tempstaff workers in Japan will scan documents - surveys, applications - and send them to China for input.

The 220 workers are expected to be able to input 200,000 - 300,000 items per day once they learn the ropes.

China's data entry workers can work for 60-70% less than their counterparts in Japan.

And THAT is why companies outsource.
