The introduction of the Xiaobian network is that China's labor costs have risen sharply, and Burma and other countries have come to the ground.

Foreign media said, with the "world factory" - China's labor costs continue to rise sharply, the global clothing brand is looking elsewhere, looking for OEM enterprises.

The US media has recently published an article entitled "non China made". Apart from the recognized clothing industry centers such as Bangladesh and Vietnam, the time for new players to join in the clothing game is ripe: Burma, Haiti and Ethiopia want to revive the once thriving industry, and even start developing clothing industry from scratch.

In the next few years, China will cut about 85 million manufacturing jobs.

Some experts say that China may usher in a great opportunity for Korean economic development.

Despite the backwardness of Ethiopia's infrastructure, this country, which resembles the "30 years ago China", is becoming an attractive long-term investment destination because of its backing on the continent. 6 of the 10 fastest growing economies in the world are in Africa, and livestock stocks in Africa are also large.

The Chinese and Turks do think so.

Huajian shoes group and AECO textile company are top ranked apparel manufacturers in the world. At present, they are planning to invest heavily in the construction of "clothing city". Each "clothing city" can accommodate up to 60 thousand workers and 50 manufacturers.

The article said that because of the brutal dictatorship of the military, Burma was once known as the "outpost of tyranny".

The western countries relaxed their economic sanctions against Burma in 2010, and the country began extensive democratic reforms the following year.

At present, the garment industry in Burma is expected to bring in US $1 billion 700 million in export revenue in 2014, compared with us $900 million in 2012.

According to the Burma Manufacturers Association, Burma workers earn only $30 a month, which is lower than the world bank's poverty line of $1.25 a day.

Earlier reports showed that Ethiopia clothing workers earned between $37 and $53 a month.

Therefore, the wages of garment workers in Burma and Ethiopia are the lowest in the world (Bangladesh garment workers earn about $68 per month).

Not many people will turn a blind eye to these figures, but some experts believe that low wages - a feature that has now become a common feature of all countries and regions in developed economies - is a necessary sacrifice at the initial stage, in order to attract investors.

Benjamin Powell, director of the Institute of free market research at Texas Technical University, believes that if job seekers voluntarily choose low paid jobs, this is the best option for a series of bad choices.

He said: "if we impose relevant laws on these countries and ask them to raise their wage standards and improve their working conditions, the reason why some companies choose to go there will no longer exist, and they will be in a more poverty-stricken position."

Haiti

Exit

Between 80% and 90% of the income comes from the garment industry.

In this country, labor standards are expected to improve.

Arianna Rossi, a research and policy officer of the International Labour Organization and the "better working" organization specializing in the clothing industry, believes that the conditions in Haiti have been greatly improved.

The minimum daily wage increased to $5 in May this year. The latest report released by the "better working" organization shows that factories are basically implementing the relevant regulations, and 37% of garment workers earn more than $6.75 a day.

The article says, no matter

Garment making

Whether the industry is conducive to the development of the economy and whether it helps individuals improve their economic conditions, such as Haiti, Burma and Ethiopia, are spreading red carpet for all kinds of clothing brands.
