7月22日,福建晋江,特步代工厂工人在大量警察“保护”下到当地政府讨薪。由于长期被特步拖欠货款,顺超(超杯)鞋厂于今年7月初倒闭,工人于7月8日起连日维权,讨要被拖欠的工资,但至今未果。

On July 22, in Jinjiang, Fujian, workers from a Xtep subcontractor factory went to the local government to demand their unpaid wages, under heavy police “protection.” Due to Xtep’s long-term failure to pay for goods, the Shunchao (Super Cup) shoe factory went bankrupt in early July. Since July 8, workers have been protesting for days to claim their back wages, but to no avail so far.
