I also think Apple should patent "Contribution for disaster relief to promote brand awareness". So that if Samsung also donate they can be sued, for copying Apple.
<p>Apple should donate even more to create brand awareness in China. I just hope Samsung does not copy Apple by also donating for this relief effort. Samsung should rather invest in direct advertising to promote their brand in China, and not copy Apple by also donating.</p>
Nice to see your priorities there. You'd rather a company not donate to help the victims because it would fit into your ideals?!
If companies donate that's is a good thing. To denigrate a charitable act to the level of "buying" brand awareness is imho shameful.
Why the hell is Apple donating to China? Their government has all the money in the world and they should be the ones footing any necessary bill to help the people affected. Not only does the US have to help everybody else in the world but now Apple feels like they have to do the same so that the world doesn't turn on them. Where's the Chinese government and the Chianese rich class right now??

Or, y'know, just giving.
Give it a rest!
