Samsung apologises to factory workers over cancer scandal : http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/fd018474-db4c-11e3-94ad-00144feabdc0.html#axzz3MIXHYyxL
Samsung and Lenovo are under scrutiny on Thursday after a report surfaced from a China labor watchdog claiming that children were working at a facility that contributes to the companies' product.
Hundreds of staff at a factory that manufactures the iPhone, BlackBerry and Kindle have gone on strike in a row over pay.

A new report released this week has found that of the big electronic firms like Apple, Microsoft, Sony and Samsung, only Nokia can prove that it pays its factory workers a living wage.

But I don't like Nokia ...... :Cry:

If a union produced the iphone they'd all be defective like gm.

If I phones were made in North America they would cost $2 grand.

All these allegations may be true. But for most of these migrant workers, working there is probably better than slopping pigs at 5 in the morning, and making a quarter of factory wages.

The problem with this video is the lack of context. They are comparing conditions in unionized European factories to conditions in China. They should be comparing conditions between Chinese factories. If China paid their workers the same as in Europe, all these people wouldn't have any jobs at all. Factories would then move and be gladly welcome in Bangladesh or Myanmar.

While the suicides are indeed troubling. This video really doesn't show anything out of ordinary. Taking a nap during lunch hour, for whatever reason, is indeed part of the culture there for a long time. Seriously.

Nope...CNN did an article on this. They could be and would be the same selling price. The cost is the only difference. About $100-150 more in cost.

Fuck apple.

I also used to grab a quick nap during lunchtime where I worked, and that was in Canada!

Apple has the gay lobby on its side now that trumps sweat shops in china.

I think all the big name electronic corporations are in the same boat with how and where their products are made.

Come on - wake up and grab a coffee.
ALL the big companies take advantage of third world labour - somewhere, somehow.
And as the rich West - we are part of the problem.

The Apple butt-hurt trolls aside, this is a technology assembly supply chain issue - not an Apple/Samsung/Blackberry/LG issue....
