That is NOT development, that is production.

China is cheaper for _production_, but not nessicarily for development.

A lot (most?) of the cheaply produced stuff from china was developed in
the US, or Australia, etc, and then the design was given to a production
house for cheaper per-unit production, or the original IP was stolen
(legal||moral) and a cheap production run of counterfeit parts is the
result.
