There are 'good, average and not so good' skill and knowledge levels of people from all countries. I have seen the 'best' and absolutely the 'worst' piping professionals in the so called developed (?) countries of America, Europe and elsewhere; .
The good and above-average do not have their livelihood affected anywhere. It is mostly the low-tech or labour intensive jobs that took flight. Plain and simple eonomics at work here, rather than anything else. American who have a problem with this can take on their brethern, who act as per market dynamics and rightly so. Yelling at a call centre employee or trashing a newbie who erred, brings out what is crass in some minds.

Remember the times when anything badly crafted or a job shoddily done was Jap or Korean. Now they can teach a thing or two to the rest of the world about quality and technology. It is a matter of time now for the rest.
Bald eagle and asian dragons, elephants, tigers etc. can all co-exist.

The folks from India and Pakistan have acquired their English from the British. This is not the idiom we Americans are used to.
However some posts in various engineering forums as well as inquiries to the B31.3 code committee are often times written by people who use either form as a tertiary language.
What I advise the members of this group to do would be to restate the question as you perceive it and then add your response.
Now to the folks from the other side of the world.. We Americans have seen a large amount of our economy disappear to other parts of the world including where you live. So naturally there will be hard feelings from people here.
What I cannot abide by is any kind of work that leaves here based solely upon price, which then subsequently is poorly done by somebody else. And if you couple that with the fact that some of the questions I have seen repeatedly in this and other forums are by people who are not qualified to do the work they are doing so cheaply well you can figure out where some bad feelings arise from.
