France probes Uniqlo, 3 other fashion groups over Uyghur labor

a japanese company working hand in hand with the chinese CCP ...

we can relate with other article here about chinese CCP

a Japanese company working hand in hand with the Chinese CCP ...

Capitalism makes strange bedfellows.

Tadashi Yanai has always been a pro-CCP stooge.

Magistrates at the national anti-terror prosecutor's office in Paris are probing claims the multinational companies are complicit in crimes against humanity, the source said, confirming a report on the Mediapart investigative website.

Hope the woke libs pick up the banner for the march against the CCP on this matter.

A sensible cerebration greeting to the CCP 100th anniversary :)

Uniqlo's CEO Yanai had been elusive and equivocal over the forced labor dispute in Xingjian. Instead of leaving things bygone and forgotten, the group is now paying high prices. Uniqlo also suffered import bans in the United States.

Global businesses shouldn't underestimate China risks. They need to decide the position. Cannot take and eat a cake at the same time.

Forced labor, child labor, slave labor, the list of companies would just about fit on a toilet roll, you could start with apple and a few other big names, by the way where do you greenies think the rare earth and things comes from to make your electric cars & cell phone batteries and things, yes thats right forced labor, child labor & slave labor in many cases.

Uniqlo & Zara lol .......................

Capitalism makes strange bedfellows.

Nothing strange about it. Transnational capital trumps all other interests. "Democratic" or "communist" or Democrat or Republican are just empty signifiers. We have the oligarchs and the oppressed basically.

Not surprised.

The power to change all this lies in our hands, all of you posting on this site and the rest of the population of every country, stop buying from companies complicit in genocide, sell their shares, don’t buy goods made in China.

Put your money where your mouth is!

The everlasting pursuit of profit via murky and cheap supply chains. Now you know why Uniqlo etc are so cheap.

Uniqlo - it’s Ok to charge more for t-shirt if we know that abhorrent suffering isn’t contained in the fabric.

@JT, "French probes Uniqlo" seems to be missing something. French what? Or should it be 'France probes', or possibly 'French probe...'?

Moderator: It has been corrected, thank you.

Who do you think is leading the charge here? It certainly isn't right wing business interests. It is all those terrible nasty liberals who are making the world aware of the barbarities the Chinese are committing against the Uyghurs. It is the same people who have been pounding the drum over the slow motion genocide of the Tibetan Buddhists that nobody wanted to listen to. Nope, bidness and money came first. Now the barbarities are too great to ignore. Pay attention to events in Inner Mongolia. It is similarly under the gun by the CCP to be forcibly sinocized.

I did just yesterday. I needed to buy a medical device. I read the labels carefully to see where they were made. I ended up paying $20 more for the device made in Vietnam compared to the basically identical device made in China. Vietnam would not be my first choice of a place to buy from but at least it isn't China. Boycott Chinese made products everyone. Read labels and shop with an eye towards not buying anything made in China.

Very likely the components in that device were put together in China and then shipped to Vietnam for the finishing touches, and hence, the Made in Vietnam label.

Be safe. Buy American.

Funny thing is that Uniqlo/GU just released a clothes line promoting the new Space Jam movie starring SJW/Pro-China Lebron James.

There is no corresponding medical device made in the US. American wages are too high to make it profitable for American firms to manufacture here.

Well, then you gotta buy from either communist country and you mentioned---China or Vietnam.

Regardless--there are many many US medical device manufacturers that make products in the US.

Well, then you gotta buy from either communist country and you mentioned---China or Vietnam.

The US is selling Vietnam F-16s, P-3Cs and old Coast Guard cutters to help them fend off the Chinese so it's not like I am buying from a country that is an enemy. I don't like Vietnam very much but given the choice of Vietnam or China, Vietnam gets my dollar this time around. The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
