About "Manufacturing Industry: Customizing for the Masses" topic:
Thanks to digital technology, the mass market of the 21st century is
giving way to a market of one. The automation that made cloned cars and
clothes ubiquitous is being replaced by technology that allows a
staggering degree of individualization. Customers can communicate
directly with manufacturers via the Internet, and their instructions can
be absorbed into production at little if any extra cost.

This so-called
mass customization has profound implications for many traditional
manufacturers. It will prod many to overhaul production lines to combine
the benefits of automated assembly with the power to include a vast
array of personal touches.

I agree with him because mass customisation can not be done in every product and it is a time consuming process.

For forty years since India's independence from the British in 1947, the Indian car market was dominated by two localized versions of ancient European designs -- the Morris Oxford, known as the Ambassador, and a old Fiat. This lack of product activity in the Indian market was mainly due to the Indian government's complex regulatory system that effectively banned foreign-owned operations. Within this system (referred to informally as the "license raj"), any Indian firm that wanted to import technology or products needed a license/permit from the government.
