Foxconn admits employing underage interns in China - 1 views

Matt Scheffler on 17 Oct 12Chinese manufacturer Foxconn is at it again! We can now add underage labor to other articles in this group that show how this company has been involved in controversial practices. It makes me wonder why Foxconn would continue to participate in risky, and in this case illegal, practices. Especially when they just had a strike earlier this month! Is it all about the money? What should be done? This seems like something the Chinese government would want to get involved in to protect the countries image.

John Trang on 23 Oct 12It seems like Foxconn lack ethics and morals. To add on your question "what should be done" I want to ask what can be done? Only reason China's economy is flourishing is because of exporting goods. Most US companies uses companies in China for cheap labor. If they start cracking down on stuff like this the labor might not be as cheap and it would be cheaper to have stuff built in America rather than China. That is the last thing the Chinese government want for its country.
