Blood Apples ??

Are we paying cheaper prices for their misery? Every time we but an apple product, are we paying blood money.

Apple should understand this kind of profit making will affect their brand image and hence profit in the long run !

Typical bleeding heart armchair liberal. Why so concerned about Chinese workers? Have you thought about Indian child workers in so many industries?

Common man in India is 10 times worse than common man in China. We should be so lucky to have a Apple factory in India which provides jobs to 500,000 people. Blame on poor infrastructure and our damn politicans.

Captalism, along with Imperialism, Zionism, Colonialism, Casteism has ruined the world and indeed India. We should never have let the Moghuls and the filthy and greedy racist British terrorists in. India must always kill foreign and terrorist invaders simoultaneously.

ILO? Are you serious? China has proliferated nukes and missiles to rogue countries like N.Korea and Pak. It has thumbed its nose at US, UN, etc. Do you think they will give a damm about ILO?

Neither the working conditions look appalling, nor the workers look poor.

Plus, workers are free to choose better opportunities.

Also, this is Foxconn, not apple deare illiterate journalist.

Working condition is maintained by the working environment of the companies so what would you expect - a Dharavi?
Workers dont look poor since they are shown in uniform;
Go to China you will know how much easy it is; living in democracy you cant imagine life there; most of the news never comes out of china as News is censored by government.
Foxconn is the largest supplier of the Apple electronic components; what you think, does Apple manufacture everything? they build technology, components supplied by many other companies;
