We are in 21 century, it is a great century,people are trying their best to provide wider services, same with commercial competitions.
Advertising are everywhere, on the streets, on the snack bags, on the Cartoon,even at school. since commercial organization found it is more easy to brain wash children mind rather than adult, the commercials have increased rapidly, on 1994 there were 4.2 billions of commercial for kids, on 2012 there would increase to 40 billions of commercial for kids.
with those advertisements even to babies, they are consuming parents to buy those product which can make their kids "smarter". Those companies are exploiting children's unknowing to shape their mind with advertisement like making mobile life as commercial to kids, and those video games which full of violent or beauty make up; to make children get addict to it and play out of childhood, children will not found any joy from nature world but only video game. Change kids' mind with "happy" related to junk foods.
In America, 16% of kids are overweight, because of their food chain are changed by those commercial around them everyday.
There is 4.7 million children have diagnose ADHS(attention-deficit-hyperactivity-disorder)

PEST-you see how important is it to business
explain how these factors might affect your business.
1. environment regulation or consumer protection.
2. inflation
3. age of the population
4. increased automation.
Political and legal constraints
- Consumer protection Law: constrain businesses from advertising inaccurately or inappropriately, selling faulty goods or those described incorrectly, high pressure selling tactics, not allowing consumers to change their minds after signing credits agreements.
This law is here for protect the right for consumers, also it is for monitor business companies.
once customers found out they got cheat by some products, then it is the law to help they get justices.
once a company being found out cheating on their clients/ consumers, they will hardly to get some trust.
anyway, a business can not survive without any relationship with their consumers.
For example : some people likes to buy stuff online, on ebay, or alibaba. because it could be way much cheaper. But sometimes consumers dont realize that some online websites are giving the wrong information for misleading, after they ordered, and within 7days freeshipping, they might get a totally different products, or some products are not same quality as it suppose be. So they ask for refund, then they has to pay the shipping tax back to the orginal country. in the end, they got nothing but lossing money. because they didnt know how to protect their right! ( copy right from BBC)
also, it is bad for business, because that consumer will never buy anything from that business, also people around that consumer will not trust the business, then it start to lose profit.
ECONOMIC INFLUENCES.
- Inflation : the rate of change in the average level of prices.
Money loses purchasing power during inflationary periods since each unit of currency buys progressively fewer goods. As a international company, currency rate is really affect able for the total revenue of a company. When one of the currency drop or increase
Example : recently the currency euro has dropped rapidly, it has been a grand strike to some foreign trades like China. Before euro has drop, the rate between RBM and euro was 10:1. some trade companies can make profits between this little inflation. But now it is 8:1.euro dropping so much, that caused many Chinese factories and company closed down, because they are not easy to raise up the price to sell, either the product from factory in china are also getting expensive.
SOCIAL AND CULTURAL INFLUENCES
-Age of the population :with reduce birth rated and longer expectancy, although in some nations the average age is falling due to high birth rate.
it could affect a company by :
1. environment regulation or consumer protection.
2. inflation
3. age of the population
4. increased automation.

-Age of the population :with reduce birth rated and longer expectancy, although in some nations the average age is falling due to high birth rate.
it could affect a company by :
- a larger proportion of the population over the age of retirement.
- a smaller proportion of the population in lower age ranges eg. 0-16 years
- it would cause a smaller number of workers in the economy but a larger number of dependants, that is below working age or retired
TECHNOLOGY
- Increased automation- technological change is affecting all businesses and all departments within business.
As the technology age coming by, the factory life has been changed totally.
products can be more effective produced.
its could be a good and bad thing for business.
first of all, company doesnt need much employee to do work because they machines, it also cost money to buy machines.
it can also affect the whole economy process. because once the tech get too useful, not much people will get jobs, then all folk in this world could be in a stress of looking for jobs. because not much company are hiring employees anymore.

3 companies on their way of Ethic
1. Best ethical company
Adidas

2. processing ethical company
SHELL oil company
Shell received worldwide attention for their involvement om the unfair trial and execution .they save oil in the nothern sea . but now , Shell, a company with traditionally one of the worst reputations among environmental and social pressure groups, has made enormous effort to reinvent itself as a socially responsible business.
3. super awful bad company :
KFC(Kentucky Fried Chicken (restaurant chain)
As folks know that KFC's fried chicken wings are really delicious, and i personal also loved the chicken wings from KFC. But i am pretty sure that you guys would not want eat the chicken wings from KFC again after you read this sad narrative from those chicken from the KFC's farm.
The KFC suppliers cram these chicken into huge waste-filled fatories, breed and drug them to grow as big as they cant, and that caused those chicken cant even walk , and also oftenly break their wings and legs. The suppliers allowed the workers who work in the farm to torch chickens, they steped on the chicken and jumped on the chicken to kill them or they punch chickens on the cage, that why some chickens became cripple or break wings.
At slaughter, the bird's throats are slit and they are dropping into tanks of scalding- hot water --- often at that time, these chicken are still in CONSCIOUS!!!
However, KFC never takes any suggestion from the animal welfare advisers even they have asked the company to take steps to eliminate these abuses to Animal!!!!! ANYWAY KFC are shameless and malicious!!!

now, they are sole trader, and suppliers to shops. their job is exports commodities from China to Slovakia, and sell stocks to shops' owner, earning profits from between.
As i mentioned before, that they have been go through many different works, to found out the best one for them.
the reason they have choose to be sole trader was because- As the owner has full control and able to keep all profit.

however, they have some great strengths, it is their experiences. they did so many kind of jobs, and they are really hard-working.
they make the profits between shops and suppliers.

Germany warns Greece over rescue
the eruozone plan to save greece from bankruptcy is not up for renegotiation, Germany has warned, ahead of emergency talks with greece and france.
Greek PM George Papandreou is to meet France's Nicolas Sarkozy and Germany's Angela Merkel later on Thursday.
President Sarkozy had thought the priority would be presenting to the wider world a done deal for the Eurozone rescue and asking for active international support, particularly from China.
But instead, Mr Papandreou's move has left Mr Sarkozy, and German Chancellor Angela Merkel appalled by the uncertainty, and the damage already done, our correspondent says.
Mr Papandreou is expected to say that he had no choice: a referendum was vital to try to overcome resistance on the streets to deepening cuts - and a possible alternative of snap elections would risk Greece defaulting on its debt.
Furthermore, the Greek government faces a crucial confidence vote in parliament on Friday.
One MP from the governing Pasok party has resigned, cutting Mr Papandreou's parliamentary majority to two - and six other leading party members have called on him to resign.
The planned referendum threatens to unravel a deal reached at a EU summit last week aimed at resolving the euro debt crisis.
Leaders agreed on a 100bn-euro loan (£86bn; $140bn) to Athens and a 50% debt write-off.
But in return, Greece must make deep cuts in public spending, slashing pensions and wages and making thousands of civil servants redundant

Apple wins battle to block Samsung tablets in Australia
Apple has accused Samsung of copying its touch-screen technology for its Galaxy Tab 10.1.
The two companies are embroiled in legal battles in 9 countries.
Samsung is one of Apple's biggest challengers in the smartphone and tablet industry.
The decision by the federal court threatens to hurt Samsung's position in the Australian market, as it could miss the lucrative Christmas season.
The two companies have been locked in patent disputes since April, with each accusing the other of infringing patents.
Apple has already won a victory in Germany, Europe's biggest economy, banning the sale of the Galaxy Tab 10.1. An appeal hearing is expected in that case.
Last week, Samsung said it would try to stop the sale of Apple's iPhone 4S in France and Italy, accusing the company of infringing 3G transmission patents.
An Australian court has temporarily banned the sale of Samsung Electronics' tablet computer in Australia, a victory for Apple in its global patent dispute with the South Korean company.
