text: Our strategy for what we call ‘Leading Competitive 
  
  Countries’, or LCCs, is to focus on those markets that we 
  
  see as trend leaders in both cost, quality and supply 
  
  stability. We will focus first on China and then on ASEAN 
  
  nations. This will bring cost advantages for our major 
  
  regions, such as Japan, North America and Western 
  
  Europe, making us more competitive. We’re also 
  
  investigating sourcing from Eastern Europe, the Mercosur 
  
  trading zone, and India.
