"Technology is becoming cheaper every year. The devices that Foxconn ships are becoming cheaper and cheaper every year but the employees demanding bigger wages for their work. For an instance the average smartphone will sell for 19% less in 2018," said Louis Woo, special assistant to the Chairman of Foxconn.
He also added, "We've basically stabilized (our workforce) in the last three years and Foxconn will lay off staff or hire less people in the future. Robots would replace the present work force which will reduce the labor costs."
