Strike at sportswear factory in Vietnam over alleged beating
ABC, 12/8/99 - About 50 Vietnamese workers went on strike at a company used 
by sports manufacturer Adidas after a worker was allegedly struck by 
Taiwanese supervisors.
A union official says work was stopped for several hours at Shenyee 
Corporation last week to protest against the alleged slapping of a 
Vietnamese woman shift leader by two Taiwanese male boses.
She was involved in a heated argument with the two men after they accused 
her shift of producing inferior goods in the factory about 25 kilometres 
outside Ho Chi Minh City.
Management at the 100 percent Taiwanese-owned company could not be reached 
for comment.
