iPhone 16 production takes off: Foxconn hires 50,000 new employees

[Redaktion]

Foxconn, Apple's regular supplier, has increased its workforce by 50,000 employees for the production of the new iPhone. Among other things, this was necessary due to the increase in planned delivery figures, which also means that rumors of Apple moving to India appear to be off the table for the time being.

Where in China can they get 50,000 more children to be mercilessly exploited in barracks? Oh, now they are Indian children who have nowhere to go, and now there is a problem with children in China...

By the way - Foxconn pays slaves - $3.49 per hour, i.e. about $580-600 per month, which is already 2 times lower than the average salary in China. This is precisely the search for slaves willing to work for pennies. Such people can be found in China today only among prisoners or enslaved peasants driven there by force by local authorities...

So, happy owners of Apple smartphones in the West and elsewhere --- you 100% encourage the slave trade and child labor. About the same as slave labor for the sake of "clean" electric cars in your cities, now shrouded in smog...

It's just a tad lower than average salary in your Russia. And life in China is way cheaper.

Average salary in Russia for august 2024 - 1000$. Prices in China have been higher than lower for several years now. Which is easily proven. In short, China is too expensive a country for greedy capitalists, so they are rapidly leaving for cheaper countries like India.

Apple's greed is the key indicator here.
