Well some of the workers were older than the Queen Mother so what do you expect!

It will be interesting to see how they go with QA and shipping costs

Eventually every one will be either working for government or a service industry in the Western World.

"The company is currently building a large new complex, that is currently the largest industrial undertaking in Zhongshan, China. The complex will house a new factory and dormitories for up to 10,000 workers."

If that's the kind of life those losers want to live, more power to them...
