More Trouble in Dongguan
News of more trouble is again coming out of Dongguan:While economy continues to suffer:
And more of the same from the New York Times:
The Chinese New Year is fast approaching. The Year of the Ox will begin January 26. This is almost two weeks earlier than last year, when severe winter storms crippled the nation as migrant workers were attempting to go home for the holiday. With an earlier date, and bad economic times, the potential exists for more unrests and disruption. Many workers will be looking to get paychecks to go home for the holiday. If more factories are closing and/or laying off workers and pay is not forthcoming, there could be many more similar incidents to the suitcase factory or recent toy factory unrest.
