Cambodian footwear workers demand better pay
29/11/2012
The union estimates 1,000 workers have been out since November 15, but the management at the Global Footwear factory said it was more like 300.
The wage rise would take workers from $61 to $70, "like the other nearby factories", according to a union representative, who told the Phnom Penh Post that they would continue to strike until the wage rise was agreed.
However, a factory representative said their demands were impossible, and has yet to hold talks with the union.
