Who Pays the Price? The Human Cost of Electronics

  1. So heartbreaking but there's nothing I can do but pray for those people and their families. Sana naman walang ganyan na factory dito sa Pilipinas. This is why everything made in China is cheaper because they don't take care of their workers. Last turn of the century during the Victorian era the UK and the US were the front runners of the industrial revolution. There were many human rights violations too that occurred then and even children were not spared from these abuses. Now, it's a new turn of the century but in the digital age. Ganun pa din but the burgeoning super economic power is now in Asia, China. Parang naulit lang history sa ibang lugar nga lang. Winning at any cost. Nakakasuka minsan mamuhay sa mundong eto. But what can we do? Get up, move forward, do the best we can and the faith that in the end everything will work out for the best.

  3. Good morning FP mula sa gitnang silangan!

    Nakakaiyak ang video/message sa totoo lang.
    FP, salamat for posting once in a while videos like this.
    Yun isa hindi na kinaya nag suicide na tsk.. tsk.. tsk.. Pero the question now is how to make the people care for others? Sadly habang tumatanda ang mundo, habang dumadami tayo mas lalo tayong nagiging makasarili to think they say no man is an island. Kung iisipin ang tagal tagal ng issue nito hindi lang ngaun. Only few people are paying attention.

  4. Apple sells their products at a very high price and pays the chinese manufacturers at a little amount. this happens to these people while we enjoy our gadgets. Sad but true

  5. FP, Thanks for posting this...It is very alarming...My heart bleeds while watching the video...Nakakainis isipin talaga na gumagamit tayo ng mga magagandang gadgets pero sa likod noon ay sobrang hirap pala ang dinanas ng mga kawawang manggagawa..And how do we know that we're not affected by this benzene chemicals while using our cellphones, tablets, ipad, etc...

    I can only pray for those factory workers who works very hard under worse condition...
    God Bless them.
