How come you say so, my dear friend!
This happens in China, where Labor Unions never speak for their members. And there's no negotiation, only 12 young lives left and tears of their parents.
Yes, Apple doesn't assemble those products, but we highlight Corporate Social Responsibility every time. Should apple know where and how their final products come ,and take some measures? At least, they're Party A in the contract.
If say the journalists take advantage of the name of Apple? Anything wrong? If such a leading company cannot set a sample. will other small companies make better? Big companies of course should be blamed firstly, they enjoyed spotlight, eyeballs, profits, and definitely need bear more .
