Samsung is taking the long view. Chinas working age population falls off the demographic cliff in just a few years, they are already suffering the effects now.
Too many old people, not enough young to support them. They’ll get ancient even faster than Japan did, but with the added dystopian malaise of a non-existent social safety net and a stock market that’s been fictional for decades.
Indias population, for better or worse (and generally it’s worse) is relentlessly growing.
The smart long-term manufacturing investment is NOT in China

Smart according to who? Are you trying to be a 21st Century Adam Smith? If you care anything about fairness, equality, social safety net, environmental standards that are actually enforced.... if you think any of these are important you would not support American companies manufacturing in India.

Samsung isn't American and Adam Smith was brilliant.

Whether or not we care is different from whether or not corporations care.
The bigger problem is thinking that corporations actually care about us and want to do good.
