EMS Corridor

EMS Corridor is an emerging Electronics Manufacturing Services (EMS) corridor in Chennai. It stretches from Sriperumbudur to Oragadam to the west of Chennai. The corridor boasts of capital investment by EMS companies of about 3,500 crore (US$490 million), which is half of the EMS business in India.[1]

EMS hub of India

The corridor is emerging as an EMS hub of India. Many companies like Dell, Nokia, Nokia Siemens Network, Motorola, Cisco, Samsung, Siemens, Sony-Ericsson, Flextronics, Foxconn, Alcatel, Texas Instruments, Laird plc, Salcomp, ProWorks, Perlos(LOM), Power Wave Tech, Jabil Green and Sanmina-SCI have set up their plants in this corridor with an investment of approximately $1 billion.[2]

gollark: But the enforcement of it is even weirder than that:- there are "TV detector vans". The BBC refuses to explain how they actually work in much detail. With modern TVs I don't think this is actually possible, and they probably can't detect iPlayer use, unless you're stupid enough to sign up with your postcode (they started requiring accounts some years ago).- enforcement is apparently done by some organization with almost no actual legal power (they can visit you and complain, but not *do* anything without a search warrant, which is hard to get)- so they make up for it by sending threatening and misleading letters to try and get people to pay money
gollark: - it funds the BBC, but you have to pay it if you watch *any* live TV, or watch BBC content online- it's per property, not per person, so if you have a license, and go somewhere without a license, and watch TV on some of your stuff, you are breaking the law (unless your thing is running entirely on battery power and not mains-connected?)- it costs about twice as much as online subscription service things- there are still black and white licenses which cost a third of the price
gollark: Very unrelated to anything, but I recently read about how TV licensing works in the UK and it's extremely weird.

gollark: Or maybe they just check it for keywords automatically, who knows.
