In addition, there are more sport buff in America. Product cycle usually about 1 year. So, better to get EOL of latest model from America. Lastly, sports equipment is more of a fashion thing in China. The really good 1 nvr come cheap. Almost all my running are bought from US. All of it are previous year model.

I dont know if they could survive in the long run. Cheap/good/fast the trinity. I think premium quality no. But for the price, really hard to compare quality per say to Western brands. For example, a TYR/Arena children goggles may cost like 30 dollars. Even the cheapest one is like 20+ if u lucky to find. I buy the 8 dollar goggle from Deca, i think good enough. And i had TYR goggles last only a short while. A pair of yoga/exercise tights for my wife cost around 20 dollars from sg decathlon. In comparison, a decent pair from a branded sports apparel is easily 50 dollars. I think the decathlon one is very good for it's price. Wash many times elastic and material still holding up. I don't buy running shoes or tennis equipment etc from them though cos these sports aren't big in china. But for everyday sporting goods, i think for a bao ga liao manufacturer, their item quality are all about average. And VFM for quite a number of products. Many pple just buy their casual sporting goods. Soccer balls etc. All the kindergartens, schools etc buy a lot of Decathlon items for activities. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same tennis ball made in china is cheaper in USA than it is in china by a substantial margin. You can check out online sellers like this as well. Disclosure: My relative. He is a supplier to the Queensway tennis shops as well.https://www.facebook.com/sgtennisshop/ Edited July 9, 2020 by Lala81 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can it be done like this or really need 1 extra manpower to hire as data protection officer solely as main role? In his FB post, he said requires him to "appoint" a Data Protection officer. It didn't say he needs to hire. So if it is to "appoint", then just appoint one of the staff or himself. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
