Gee, how benevolent. Shanghai's government is allowing local factories to resume production as long as 'workers live on-site.'
Shanghai’s factory resumptions would only allow for limited production capacities. The Communist Party-run newspaper admitted this was not only due to the resticted number of workers permitted to return to work at the sites but also due to the “logistical” issues alluded to by Tesla on April 18.
“For any manufacturers planning to resume work in Shanghai, if they cannot have access to quick supplies of upstream components and raw materials, simply gathering workers in the factory area won’t be enough for them to return to operational normalcy,” the publication observed. “[L]ogistics remain a severe problem for many factories near Shanghai and along the Yangtze River Delta, and this will block the transport of some raw materials to Shanghai, preventing production capacity from being fully restored,” a Shanghai-based auto parts supplier identified only by his surname, Zhang, told theShanghai is China’s top financial hub. The city houses both the world’s busiest shipping container port and hundreds of manufacturing plants run by multinational companies.
“Foxconn said it could only apply the bubble on campuses that included both employee housing and production facilities,” Reuters noted. China’s ruling Communist Party has infamously treated factory workers within the country’s westernmost region of Xinjiang poorly, as the majority of such laborers are members of the Uyghur central Asian ethnic group. The Uyghurs are a Turkic-speaking, largely Sunni Muslim minority.
