[quote=MARRIE,397435]It's notorious that Rusty and poor Tai 台巴子 runs unvicivilized biz in Tear 3 towns and countryside with employees from rural areas in mainland china withhout any sense of concept of what humanity and dignity is.  Chinese government should do something to protect their own people's basic human rights and and kick Mr. Guo OUT !

Immage is the biggest intangible asset for a corp.  Once it is threatened to be damaged, copr will be sufferred a lot financially sooner or later.  Hope Apple would KILL this supplier(Foxconn) as soon as there is proof that there does exist non humanity and mistreatment to employees in Foxconn.

Apple Responds, Confirms Foxconn Employee Suicide

The fact that a Foxconn employee committed suicide or that mistreatment by Foxconn security didn't seem like it was in question, but Apple's official response to the matter just confirms that events did occur at the very least, somewhat along the lines of what was impled.

"We are saddened by the tragic loss of this young employee and we are awaiting results of the investigations into his death," Apple spokeswoman Kristin Huguet told CNET on Tuesday. "We require our suppliers to treat all workers with dignity and respect."

If the allegations of mistreatment do turn up to be true, let's hope Apple drops Foxconn as a supplier, even if it means customers have to pay more for their products. One death is one death too many, and it's not as if Foxconn's mistreatment of workers was a secret before.

''Chinese workers can be forced to work up to 36 hours extra a month without Inspector Knacker of the Peking Yard raising an eyebrow, but Foxconn's 80 hours is well over this maximum.''
