I thought some of the numbers in this story were incredible.

First off, 79,000 employees at one factory!!

Secondly, that 5,000 police responded!!! That is a entire town of police officers.

Sounds like a prison to me, and a so called 'fine' company like Apple is associated does not surprise me.

look t the pictures. the workers dont even have shoulder width space in between each other.

It says that they have about 1 million employees total that's a lot but not as much as walmart. They have 1.8 million. there conditions are better but not much.

How much do you think the I-phone would cost if it was made in america?

[Dan R.]

There are a million workers in that town, not just at that company.

[politefab]

that's insane. If i read correctly it said the fights broke out in the dormitory.. i wonder what those guys gt paid.

i did a little more reading and research and from what i can see foxconn has 1million employees total in china.

Once u have been to china. U will see there are loads of people everywhere. A town of a million people is that a town. Not a city

That is insane, work and live at the same place with the same people will drive any one f-ing nuts
