Apple production in India can cause “geopolitical risks”: Ming-Chi Kuo, Apple analyst

Setting up new Apple production firms in India can potentially increase geopolitical risks, states Ming-Chi Kuo, a market analyst at KGI Securities and a well-known reporter of Apple-related news. 

Ming-Chi Kuo, considered a reliable source of analysis and predictions concerning Apple, says that Apple moving production from China to India would be a risky move for the global tech company.I

n a recent tweet, Kuo claimed that the upcoming Apple products, AirPods Pro 2, will be mass produced in Vietnam. He added that this will be a successful move for Apple because of "Vietnam's better production environment (such as infrastructure and workforce) vs. most countries outside China". 

In replies to the same tweet, Kuo further added that such success cannot be replicated elsewhere in the world, especially India, because of aforementioned pros associated with Vietnam.
