Apple iPod, iPhone Manufactured in Fantabulous Outsourcing City
13 08 2007
Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., Shenzhen is a walled factory city of 270,000 Hon Hai (Foxconn) employees. They have everything from a hospital, fire station, swimming pool, athletic field a separate area for the basketball courts and even a bookstore (see pictures below). Besides Apple iPods and iPhones, Hon Hai workers/residents make Dell and Hewlett Packard PCs, Motorola and Nokia cell phones, Sony PlayStation 2 and PSP and the Nintendo Wii. It’s a nice place to live and all, but with no Starbucks (you’ll have to go outside the walls), I don’t think it’s the place for me. But imagine being young and just out of college and not knowing exactly what to do with your life. A walled-in community of 270,000 young factory workers (with approximately 135,000 of those wearing a skirt, or at least a tight blouse (see pictures below) might not sound too bad at all.
