Sony Corp is to build an assembly plant for liquid crystal displays in Wuxi, Jiangsu province, which should start production in March 2004. The Japanese group will also establish an engineering centre to support existing factories in China that make audiovisual and information-related equipment.
These planned moves are designed to enable Sony to offer the same products almost simultaneously in China and Japan. Currently, the launch of Sony's products in China is delayed by several months because of the need to convert software into Chinese and make other modifications.
