The global economy has the most visible side since the 21st century we can get products from all over the world with one click from any of our devices. However, this global consolidation has a very visible and worrying side, and the fact is that most of the textiles or electronic products come from countries where labor is very cheap and workers are often in poor conditions.
In this sense, Australian Policy Center (or ASPI) has issued a report shocking, which explains how 83 companies (including Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo) can benefit from labor camps in China where workers can be enslaved.
Microsoft would not be aware of these plans in China
According to the report, about 80,000 Uyghurs, a small Muslim group based in China, were sent to work in factories throughout China. This figure is actually an average, and may be too high. Staff also appoint carers as well they have limited freedom of movement (including endless vigilance), too They are forbidden to participate in their religious activities, in addition to being asked to receive Mandarin classes and indoctrination.
Report they do not directly blame the 83 companies mentioned, because it confirms that they may not be aware of these conditions of slavery that the workers suffer. However, it is encouraging for them to take action on this issue as we face a very serious problem. The Chinese government itself affirms that this information is completely false, and that it is a minority & # 39; that they co-operate and develop, and ensure that co-operation between different races is encouraged.
We are undoubtedly facing a very serious problem, and that is that China must work to resolve the situation, guarantee all the rights of these citizens, and ensure that their working conditions are dignified. And you, can you think of additional steps to apply and make sure these little things can work with dignity?
