How has globalisation saved money for businesses?
Globalisation is the actions taken by numerous governments around the world in order to promote a freer trading environment by clearing tariffs. This promotes countries around the world to trade internationally with the freedom that their products will not be up priced and therefore be made more unattractive to buy.
Perhaps I made the local brands sound like the bad guys. Its far from that. In fact, many people object to globalisation and label it the big businesses fault. They're saving money which means they can lower the pricing, which leads to a sales increase, which means they gain more money, which means they can lower the pricing, which leads to a sales increase, which means that they save more money, which means...
... Getting out of that loophole there, the main reason why the largest corporations are pushing for globalisation is that their cheaper prices are easily enough to persuade many more customers to choose their product over their smaller more neutral competitors.
Consider the following scenario: A Korean car manufacturer (whoever, I don't know) can produce cars so they can be sold at a market price of AU $20,000. Meanwhile, down under, An Australian car manufacturer (with access to only some of the mass productive technology that the Korean's hold) can produce the same type of cars so they can be sold at a market price of AU$25,000. Ah, now you're beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Why buy the more expensive Australian model when you can have exactly the same when you buy the Korean model. This is where tariffs come in. They are import taxes.
So say there's an import tax of 20%, equating to AU$4,000. This Korean car now becomes more expensive. Now its 24,000 vs 25,000. All of a sudden that Australian car is starting to give you a gentle nudge with its colourful "made in Australia" badge. With prices just about level, many governments promoting products made in their country swing the consumers decision the other way. If you think it doesn't seem so effective, you'd be surprised.
Tariffs are what prevented countries from freely trading with one another, and that's the problem big businesses had with these things. I mean, once they'd conquered their own country, they hit a big wall which there was rather inconveniently no door to pass through.
Its basically a race. The first company to dominate the national market in their country of origin can expand. Rapidly. Ever heard of Coles and Woolworths? They own 75% of the Australian groceries market between them. Doesn't sound so bad? This is what will probably prevent brands unique to Australia (such as IGA) from going international. Whats the point of growing a business when you haven't even got the biggest base in your company of origin. Sorry, but your business would fail.
The phasing out of the good ol' local brands is where the big boys save money. All the money spent on advertising will soon persuade one customer after another to change.
Lets go back to our Coles and Woolworth's friends. They intentionally carry out a strategy called predatory pricing. They deliberately lower the prices of common groceries like milk and bread drastically, so its way lower than their local competitors. This drives many to switch, and their market share grows and grows and grows and grows and grows and grows and grows and grows and grows and grows and grows and grows and grows and grows and grows...
... and grows.

Why has globalisation led to sweatshops?
Sweatshops are an issue because there are many negative things about them. For a start, workers on average have to work 12-18 hours a day with incredibly low pay in incredibly dangerous conditions and often can be abused in physical and even sexual ways.
The main issue is child labour, it is discussed all around the world and it has been known for children as young as 10 to be working in sweatshops. The owners of the factories often employ people without asking them there name, without them having any skills in that area of the job. So more often than not, the people are employed without any paper work.

PFO is a heart condition that stands for Patent Foraman Ovale (also known as ASD or Atrial Septal Defect). Terms to understand the following brief description. -Atrium: Chamber within the heart that receives blood flow and expells it into the ventricles in order to be pumped out.
-Septum: wall that divides right atrium from left atrium
-Arterial blood: "Fresh" oxigenated blood that starts the circulation through the body.
-Venous blood: Poorly oxigenated blood that has already circulated and needs to pass through the lungs in order to reload. PFO is a heart malformation in which isolation of the right atrium (venous) from the left one (arterial), which are divided by the septum, is not complete. The problem with the lack of isolation is that it allows blood to flow from the left atrium to the right one . This leads to arterial blood to get mixed up with venous blood and also forces the heart. A relevant PFO could lead to heart enlargement and ultimately to heart faliure. All fetus have this lack of isolation until the fourth week of gestation. If the body doesn't manage to close it completely then diagnosis is PFO/ASD (the foramen ovale located on the septum doesn't completely close). 20-30% of adults have this condition. For more detailed info you can always check under ASD on wikipedia!

The most common explanation is that the appendix is a vestigial structure with no absolute purpose. In The Story of Evolution, Joseph McCabe argued thus: The vermiform appendage-in which some recent medical writers have vainly endeavoured to find a utility-is the shrunken remainder of a large and normal intestine of a remote ancestor. This interpretation of it would stand even if it were found to have a certain use in the human body. Vestigial organs are sometimes pressed into a secondary use when their original function has been lost. One potential ancestral purpose put forth by Darwin:[3] that the appendix was used for digesting leaves as primates. Over time, we have eaten fewer vegetables and have evolved, over millions of years, for this organ to be smaller to make room for our stomach.It may be a vestigial organ of ancient man that has degraded down to nearly nothing over the course of evolution. Evidence can be seen in herbivorous animals such as the Koala. The cecum of the koala is attached to the juncture of the small and large intestines and is very long, enabling it to host bacteria specific for cellulose breakdown. Early man's ancestor must have also relied upon this system and lived on a diet rich in foliage. As man began to eat more easily digested foods, they became less reliant on cellulose-rich plants for energy. The cecum became less necessary for digestion and mutations that previously had been deleterious were now neutrally selected against. These alleles became more frequent and the cecum continued to shrink. After thousands of years, the once-necessary cecum has degraded to what we see today; the appendix.

Can anyone tell the Swot analysis for burger king?
Strengths: International distribution, product differentiations...i.e. larger burgers, flame broiled, croissanwhich, special advertising and appeal...the King and the commercials, different taste profile, different rapidly growing (18-34) consumer segment Weaknesses: weaker over sales appeal, less distribution than McDonald's, possible weaker association with pre-teens, less of an international appeal, branding weaker overall than competitors, less cash on hand Opportunities: it's all about product improvement and brand improvement Threats: Higher priced products during down times get crushed, food costs are rising higher than standard inflation, health concerns among general public, etc etc
