It is for their own good. Robots are inevitable, better to push them out now and start addressing what they mean for society than pretend they're never coming.

Isn't it better if they have time to transition to more services oriented economy first?

Sure, that would be better. It'd be awesome if they could transition to any type of better economy. But I think given all the circumstances and what is happening, facing and accepting reality is the best way to go. Because the robots are coming, waiting for the country to be ready just isn't going to happen.
