China, garment workers and nanotechnology Asian Labor News asked this question regarding China, garments and nanotechnology: China has earned a reputation in some quarters as the world's sweatshop, particularly for conditions in its garment sector. Images of cramped factories with hundreds or thousands of workers toiling for long hours and low pay to produce cheap garments spring to mind, which is not necessarily wrong. Many garment workers do in fact work in poor and sometimes dangerous conditions. But it's not the only way garments are made in China, as this story on a Hong Kong company with manufacturing facilities in Guangdong using nanotechnology suggests. Working conditions? It's not clear, but I'd be interested to know more. nanobot.blogspot.com
