Zarchi Lwin pawned her only two gold bangles for US$140 (RM610) when the owner of the factory where she sewed winter coats for British retailer Next Plc shut it down after orders dried up due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

She is one of hundreds of thousands of garment workers across Asia who have been laid off, according to the Workers Rights Consortium, a labour rights campaign group, and are now struggling to survive with little welfare support, mired in debt and in many cases reliant on food handouts.

Factory owners in Myanmar, Bangladesh and Cambodia immediately shut down thousands of factories and sent home workers with little or no pay. To finish pending orders, about half of Bangladesh’s 4,000 garment factories have reopened, according to garment manufacturer associations.
