We stayed at a Holiday Inn. Other than the staff having limited English ability, we could have been in the States. Foreign hotels are allowed to have CNN, but the general population is not. We toured a factory the next day. Their factories remind me of our country perhaps 50 - 75 years ago.
Young women toil day after day with no safety equipment, and poor wages.
This includes meals and board in a dormitory provided by the factory. These are the fortunate people. They come from the interior of the country and stay in the factory dorm for a year. They only go home for Chinese New Year for two weeks. I saw working conditions which speak volumes for the disdain with which the Chinese treat workers.
