My thoughts on ...
What I think about Foxconn
It is too aggressive, too big. Need to be size down.

The skills I often see lacking in the EMS industry today
Root cause finding and action planning

What I think about some of the emerging EMS markets or regions
Thailand maybe more active if politic is stable in the future

What I think about low-cost manufacturing
Need to have good balance between cost and quality. No over quality, but acceptable quality.

My thoughts on what makes a good program manager
Attitude and study

If I could travel back in time and witness any event one would be
911

Some of the countries I have visited for work or play
Thailand, maybe the best place in Asia after visits to most of countries in Asia pacific

A helpful travel tip I often use
Buy local SIM card to save roaming cost and get always on line. Remember to bring your second telephone with charger.

The ultimate consumer electronics product I would still like to see developed
IPAD, Why use micro SIM? Very bad rock head of Apple engineer. Something like Sony's memory stick.

A favorite electronics gadget
Samsung Galaxy SII , for sure. Better than Iphone in every aspect.
