We've done Globalisation. Looking at world cities, how the world has "shrunk" through transportation, phones, and the internet, megacities, urbanisation, TNCs, ethical buying, slums, sustainable cities, migration, and so on.

Thanks to Geography, I really want to visit Curitiba. It's just amazing there.

You know, I should look up a good Transnational Company... What about Disney

A transnational company is a company that is spread worldwide. They have factories in LEDCs. The largest ones have an annual revenue larger then some countries. They're economically powerful and politically influential. Wal-Mart is the biggest TNC.

OK, found what I need:

Home Country/HQ (Disney's is in the USA. California is the main HQ for most of the sectors like Disney Animation Studios, Disney Channel, Disney Shopping (one of the best themed HQs imo. Look it up!) and Pixar Animation Studios)

Market Sectors the TNC is involved in. (Does everything count? Disney takes part in movies, TV, newspapers, theme parks, clothing, food, home accessories, websites, games, etc.)

Employment and turnover data. (That I don't know. Better look it up)

Global network: Locations of production, sales, research & development (I'm not sure...)

Issues: Any criticisms on the company (there should be many, but I can't think of any... Well, there was something about the company that made some of Disney's merchandise were found to pay their employees very little, and treated them badly. I guess Disney's decision to go away from traditional animation was bad because of the jobs that were lost, and a part of the company's roots was also lost. Sure it's coming back, but still...)

I know. He's full of stuff like that. I'm still trying to persuade my mummy to let him stay at ours in the summer . He says that if she's not keen on him staying at ours, that he doesn't mind staying in a hotel, as long as he gets to see me . Such a sweetie
