Garment Workers Are Demonstrating Constantly, H&M And Other Clothing Brands Will Increase Or Increase In Price This Year.

Last Tuesday, Cambodia Labor Department of Kampuchea announced that the minimum wage in the clothing industry will be raised to 25% US dollars to US $100, but industry workers demand that the minimum wage be doubled to 160 US dollars in the month. P

< a href= "http://www.91se91.com/news/index_cj.asp" > labor department < /a > also requires strike workers to stop the strike before Thursday and threaten to take legal action against workers who go on strike, but failed to stop angry workers, thus causing Friday's massacre.

< /p >

< p > trade unions in Kampuchea indicated that unless the Ministry of labour and employers agreed to renegotiate the minimum wage standards, they would continue to extend the strike.

Coalition of Cambodian Apparel Workers "Democratic Union", Ath Thorn, chairman of the Kampuchea clothing workers' Democratic Union, told the Wall Street journal that the government and employers must resume labour negotiations within three days, otherwise the protests will continue.

However, Heng Sour, a spokesman for the Ministry of labour in Kampuchea, said there would be no new negotiations to maintain the previous US $100 standard.

< p > in view of the tough attitude of the employers and employees, the strike of Kampuchea's clothing workers continues to decline, and the Cambodia National Rescue Party, the Kampuchea rescue party, which is required to be re elected, join the protest of the garment workers, which is expected to further aggravate the chaos of the situation.

It can be imagined that both the minimum wage level of workers and the shortage of supply caused by continuous strikes will cause the rise of clothing prices in 2014.

< p > over the past three years, due to rising costs, global clothing prices have skyrocketed, especially in China, where the demographic dividend is no longer dominant. Most of the clothing brands begin to shift their manufacturing plants to other poorer Southeast Asian countries such as Kampuchea and Bangladesh.

< /p >

< p > although it has made some progress for these countries to rely on the "a href=" http://www.91se91.com/news/index_f.asp "clothing" /a "export economy, but at the same time there has been a rise in prices. The clothing industry workers are increasingly dissatisfied with the working environment and treatment. By the end of 2012, Bangladesh continued to have fires and collapsed buildings. The most serious one caused more than 1000 deaths, and nearly 200 people are still missing.

< /p >

< p > to improve the working environment and the treatment of workers, European and American dress retailers have no choice but to agree with H&M Hennes & Mauritz AB (HMb.ST) Hayne and Maurice. They are willing to raise their wages and improve their treatment. Wal-Mart Stores Inc. (NYSE:WMT) WAL-MART and Gap Gap (CAP) cover up Pu, these are only willing to form their own alliance to take relevant measures, which makes the improvement of garment industry workers' progress become slow.

In September 2013, in order to strive for a minimum of 104 dollars a month, Bangladesh a href= "http://www.91se91.com/news/index_f.asp" > garment workers < /a > went on the streets of the capital Dhaka to protest. The protest lasted for three days, and the workers set fire to fewer warehouses, while some roads were blocked. Bloomberg Television reported that the police used tear gas to disperse the protesters. P

The protest resulted in the closure of 400 factories, including the supply factory of Wal-Mart Stores Inc. (NYSE:WMT), an American retailer, and at least 70 people, including 6 policemen, injured.
