Down with Foxconn: Yet Another Suicide!!!






2010-07-22 07:28

An 18-year-old summer intern at a factory affiliated with the Foxconn Technology Group was found dead on Tuesday after falling from a six-story company dormitory in Guangdong Province.

The death adds to a string of worker suicides at factories run by Foxconn, a supplier to Apple Inc.

LCD maker Chimei Innolux Corp said yesterday the man started the internship on July 2 but was being let go because he failed to show up for work for several days.

The fight continues. La lucha continua...
