This bit of information is just the tip of the iceberg when reporting on worker exploitation (if murder, beatings, torture qualify for exploitation) .
Somehow these two countries got fingered but you can also add China, India, Viet Nam, Laos, Myanmar, Pakistan, Malaysia, Indonesia, Kenya to name just a few. I would need to get out the atlas to complete the list.
You condone such activity when you buy some goods made in these countries . Don’t blame the countries themselves, but he people and companies that place production orders in these regions.
