因進一步采取工業罷工，鞋類生產行業在越南受到重創。在今年早些時候后，工人罷工后，在胡志明市的Hue Phong鞋類公司關閉。工會表示，與管理的談判，已徒勞無功，而且1000以上的工人在工廠里繼續參懷工業罷工。他們要求更短的工作時間，較高的薪酬和更好的工作條件。

    The footwear production industry in Vietnam has been hit by further industrial action.

    The Hue Phong Footwear Company in Ho Chi Minh City closed earlier in the year after a strike by workers.

    Trade unions have said that negotiations with management have been fruitless and that more than 1,000 workers at the plant are continuing with the industrial action.

    They have asked for shorter working hours, higher rates of pay and better working conditions.
