Whether it's "slave" labour or not, the worker's life there is still much worse than in the West, is it? Otherwise why would we be buying everything from there at a bargain price?

By the way, where did you go, Andy? Were you free to travel or did they restrict you to certain places? I'm only asking because I've heard terrible things about the rural areas, but most Westerners only seem to visit the cities.

No flame intended!
