Apple is in the forefront of the Cloud Computing Revolution in the Valley while His Holiness The Dalai Lama preaches peace to humanity from the valleys of Dharmashala and Bylakuppe in India.
The risk for Apple is its products are made in China and if the Chinese shut down its supply then there will be no Apple devices for the world to use.
Last week President Barack Obama met the Dalai Lama and the Chinese have not appreciated this meeting with the Tibetan Spiritual leader in exile.

Compare this to Android which already has a significant market share and is licenced by Google, the Android operating systems is licenced to a number of handset manufacturers and thus Google runs no risk of the Android or its applications in the Android market place in the cloud being affected by the Chinese.
The Android is manufactured all over the world, though there may some risk because of Chinese supply; it may not be as critical as the problems that Apple would face if the Chinese shut down their manufacturing for the US company Apple.
It is time that Apple fixed this risk, Apple's fans and customers deserve this for their loyalty to Apple products !

But this may still not be enough to prevent the Chinese from stopping shipment of Apple Phones.
