The main countries outside of the US where I have found equal general ease of doing business is Germany and Canada. The rest of them nickel and dime you to death, moreso than the aforementioned. I do not blame Huawei from wanting to maintain the gravy train. It is very inefficient to go after 100 small markets than 2-3 big ones.
Actually Huawei has been thriving in emerging markets and the third world. A few years back I used to go out with one of the top sales guys there (head of World Sales or Head of Sale in the Americas, he had a bunch of titles and traveling a lot between China, North and South America, he used to be an expat in Africa as well for Huawei in his formative years ). He reckoned Huawei was basically doing great in most of the places in the World but in the US, so US has never been the gravy train for Huawei afaik. It's been going for a multitude of customers in smaller markets for a long time now.
