Guardian Investigation of Ivanka Trump Factory in Indonesia Reveals Worker Abuse, Deplorably Low Pay
A new investigation by the Guardian has revealed workplace abuse, grueling production targets and deplorably low pay at an Indonesian factory that makes clothing for Ivanka Trumps clothing label. Many of the female workers at the factory in West Java say the pay is so low, they live in constant debt and cant afford to live with their own children. In June, Democracy Now spoke with the journalist who broke the story, Krithika Varagur, when she joined us from Indonesia to describe what she uncovered.
