That is a little bit misleading.
Plenty of those "conglomerates" are in fact a bunch of separated companies, that share only a name part, like Mitsubishi. Mitsubishi does not even have a holding / mother company.

Mitsubishi is split into 3 "Great Houses" and 7 smaller companies, wearing the name Mitsubishi, and another bunch not having Mitsubishi as part of their name.

The other 5 Keiretsu have similar structures.

However, your point is that different cultures see a solid base in commerce very different than Americans.

BYD is building everything, except the glass for the windows and the tires, themselves. From the smallest screw to the car seats. I assume that statement is a bit cheating, as they most likely have their electronics inside with off the shelf Android displays/tablets, and I guess, everything containing microcomputers is most likely not self made.

Comment The Myanmar Earthquake reaching Bangkok (Score 1) 21

When the earth quake in Myanmar happened 2025, I was in Lampang province north Thailand.

I got an alert on my Android phone, but it was all in Thai language. I showed it to a friend and he dismissed it as "fake".

I have no clue if it was a Google build in feature (then I wonder why an English set phone did not get the message in English), or if it was a Thai government feature, and why my friend did not recognize it.

The quake was very devastating in Myanmar, and super strong in Bangkok, but the buildings there resisted pretty well.

Both are 1000km away from my position. At my place it was only an odd eyry feeling, why we had problems to walk, felt dizzy and such, the water towers did not even shake.
