Hon Hai
Precision Industry (Foxconn) will design and manufacture new Blackberry phones
for the next five years, our sister paper Commercial Times reported on Dec. 21,
two days after the company's chairman Terry Gou announced the company would
open a new factory in Yogyakarta, Indonesia after the Lunar New Year.
The
Southeast Asian nation is one of the markets that Blackberry aims to target.
Company
spokesman Simon Hsing said Hon Hai's new factory in Yogyakarta and another
plant in Mexico will be the major manufacturing bases for Blackberry phones, as
they are both close to the major markets for the smartphone.
Commercial
Times said approximately 50 million cell phones or smartphones were imported to
Indonesia in 2012, generating total revenue of more than US$4.5 billion.
