Foxconn offered to their employees 30% increase in wages, after a series of suicides, accidents in the workplace and strike at its factory, which holds high-tech products, including the Apple iPhone. These steps and events directly are those stones that changing the "pattern" of the Chinese economic model. Proportion of the working population in the division of national income fell from 53.4% in 1996 to 40.9% in 2009, whereas, corporate profits have increased from 21% of national income, up 31.3%. The increase in wages of the population of China, will certainly lead to an increase in domestic consumption, bringing China, with its capacity market leading positions in terms of consumption. That is, China's economy, which depends on exports and investment, will go partly for internal consumption. Analysts of IFD "RESMI" indicate that a natural way, all this negative impact on China's trade surplus with its excessive trade surplus, and GDP growth, which will be decreased from 11% to a more modest 9.7%, but the remainder are still quite high. Also, the increase in wages, will lead to greater purchasing power, which in turn will raise prices on goods. Chinese goods may lose their attractive low price, but it will allow other countries to begin to compete with China. It is possible that India will become a "second China" in the relay exports of cheap goods and cheap labor. - Kellogg Co. (K US), the largest American manufacturer of breakfast cereals and food products, has announced its intention to acquire the company in its sector.

Loans to the construction industry in May of this year amounted to KZT1.4 trillion, which is 12% lower than in May 2009. Loans to the needs of trade decreased by 5%. Thus, crediting the construction industry decreased by 12%, this was the most noticeable decline, after the decline in lending to the communications industry (- 22%).
