CAMBODIA: Mass fainting at Adidas sportswear supplier

12 December 2011

Another incident of mass fainting has been reported in Cambodia's garment industry, this time at the Sportex Industry factory in Phnom Penh's Russei Keo district where around 59 workers collapsed.

The workers were taken ill after a series of false fire alarms meant they had to rush out the two-storey production complex three times. Initial investigations showed they fainted due to lack of oxygen in the factory and the rush to get out.

Cambodia's Ministry of Labour asked the factory to give the workers four days' paid leave, before resuming operations.


The Sportex Industry factory is managed by the Taiwanese-owned Sportex Industry Co Ltd, which makes sportswear for Adidas and has aroundly 1,400 workers.

In a related move, the International Labour Organisation's Better Factories Cambodia (BFC) programme is seeking funding for a campaign to prevent future fainting incidents at garment factories. It hopes to persuade workers to pay more attention to health and hygiene, as well as encourage employers to improve working conditions.

Approximately 400 000 Cambodians are living in America and even though some of them are can't speak Khmer but they are still American origin from Cambodia. They must also participate in help Cambodia such as support more democracy in Sros Khmer like USA.

So if we all donate $1 per week to help improve Cambodia democracy activities in Cambodia that will be great help. This is the spirite of America, $1 per week from each Cambodian in American will be approximately $ 300 000 to $ 400 000 per week to promote democracy in Cambodia.

In Canada, Australia and New Zealand, approximately 200 000 Cambodians are living there too. They can help too.

In Europ, Approximately 300 000 Cambodians are living there too. They can help too.

Only $1 per week from each Cambodians oversea, that is not much to improve Khmer Voices to be more heard in UN, America goverment and the world to know our suffering and what are really happen in Cambodia today.

The question is Can we as Cambodian origin help this come true?

That money will use to make real Khmer people voices to be heard in UN and in America goverment and the world.

Khmer oversea should have independent TV channel and Radio station in Cambodia to educate Cambodian people in Cambodia to know the true histories of Khmer.

Can we all make these come true for $1 per week only to help our khmer nation?

Hey Dumb Vietgooks and Vietgook lady Ms. Soap, Smart Asses/Clever Killers! Khmer people are not dumb, but Khmer people are very peaceful people who don't create warm. You Dumb Vietgooks like to make wars and play games with other. It is too late for your Vietgook to play the dirty tricks like your Vietgook had done in the past like the Vietgook War with Americans. Then You Vietgook the create the secret and dirty plan in the blind eyes of International communities and you have tried to fool foreigners as much as you can. However, you, Vietgooks can't because Khmer people all over the world and international communities caught your bad and evil acts, playing to be smart ass to kill Khmer and Laotian people to spread ugliest Vietgookization that has ugly culture and ugly tone.

Go ahead to spread the Vietgookization, Ms. Vietgook Lady, Ms. Soap. You are very good to deceive men to show some cock for you, but no man want to fuck your ugly Virgina even though you are so pretty Vietgook lady and because you are a very bad lady to cause a lot of problem in Cambodia and support your illegal Vietgooks living in Cambodia. What a mess, Ms. Vietgook lady Ms. Soap. You are no different as Vietgook secret agents hiding among Khmer society to quietly kill innocent Khmer people who are very peaceful people who did not like to make wars. You Ms. Soap and your Vietgooks try to kill innocent and peaceful Khmer people who live there where you ugly Vietgook bitch and your illegal Vietgooks living in Cambodian on purpose in order to steal land by your committed evil murderous acts and overtake everything from Cambodia. You Ms. Soap and your Vietgooks are the same as secret Vietgook/Yuon agents hiding among Khmer Rouges Regime that murdered innocent and people Khmer people, trying to accuse Pol Pot, Nuon Chea, and every Khmer Rouges as Killers instead. How clever and smart your Vietgooks and you Vietgook lady (named yourself Ms. Soap) are today. Stop playing the trick and dirty game or plan with Khmer people and foreigners or International Communities. You Vietgook lady and your Vietgooks always think the U.S. to ignore or that the U.S. does not know about your dirty secret plan to wipe out Khmer people and your Vietgooks manipulate the U.S. to hate innocent and peaceful Khmer people with no reason. Your Vietgooks keep fooling the U.S. and Europeans and International communities. We, Khmer people, have a lot of things to say how bad and evil you Vietgook lady and Vietgook folks are in everywhere around the globe.

If something occur badly between Yuon/Vietgook and Khmer people in the U.S., there will be a lot of noise about Vietgook country and folks that are dog eaters and eat everything animals and creatures until they are not existed anymore. Bad Vietgook dog eaters.

Please Khmer people in the U.S. and abroad let's make noise and chant on the street or protest against Vietgook folks like Ms. Soap and her evil Vietgook government in Cambodia and Laos to change and manipulate other foreigners in the blind eyes of International Communities.

Vietgook lady named herself Ms. Soap, tries to spread her dirty and unreliable comments to fool young Khmer, Vietgook children to confuse and be brainwashed to kill Khmer people, believe wrong and rewritten history about Vietgookization. Vietgook culture and language are very ugly and boring. Vietgook copied the ideas of how to make Khmer food everywhere their Vietgook restaurants. For example, fresh spring roll, rice mercelli, all kinds of Khmer food to be Vietgook food.

Please Khmer people make noise about Vietgook and don't wait until the world know how bad Vietgook fooks are because of the manipulation and accusation of this Vietgook Bitch named herself Ms. Soap.

Then the people in the world will stop Vietgook folks and government to kill Khmer people including Laotian people before Vietgook folks and their ugly government to take over the lands and make their ugly and disgusted Vietgookization/Vietnamization.
