Summary
The Indian government wants to use this market power to encourage foreign investment in India and has encouraged local manufacturing by enacting heavy import duties and making it harder for workers to unionize.A report on the ground from This Week in Asia makes it sound like there is still a lot of work to be done for workers' rights at the Wistron plant. The site reports that workers from the plant are still refusing to speak to the media for fear of repercussions and quotes the Karnataka chief minister, B.S. Yediyurappa, as saying, “Protecting the interests of foreign investors is very important for us.”You must login or create an account to comment.Join the Ars Orbital Transmission mailing list to get weekly updates delivered to your inbox.
