Cambodia is one of the countries where garment factories have relocated to due to the low wages and slack enforcement of health and safety rules. Cambodian garment workers have been demanding better pay and conditions for many years, but terrible accidents are still too common. In the latest protest, around 3,000 workers employed at a factory that manufactures for Nike, were demanding higher wages. The police attacked the demonstration and 23 workers were injured as a result.
