. Since then, under both the Obama and Trump administrations, CBP has used its detention authority 12 times to stop shipments, including those last week.
But last month, Costco Wholesale Corp. began importing baby pajamas made by the company. On September 21, 2019 and again on Sept. 26, 2019, Hetian Taida sent shipping containers filled with 100% polyester blanket sleepers for babies and toddlers to the U.S., labeled for Costco, according to shipping records.
Reached by phone on Monday, Hetian Taida Chairman Wu Hongbo told the AP that the company will cooperate with U.S. Customs and provide the agency with any documents it needs. Wu declined to answer further questions and said he has chosen to reject all media interview requests.
Hall said CBP’s detention orders “fired a starting gun to warn both Malaysian and Thai governments that rubber manufactured products like gloves, condoms, medical equipment as well as an array of other labor intensive products from the region that are currently manufactured using systemic migrant forced labor cannot be exported to the US.”
“We were completely blindsided,” he said. “It’s deeply disturbing for me personally and for our company.”Bone charcoal manufacturer, Bonechar Carvão Ativado Ltd. in southern Brazil, said accusations leading to its CBP detention order came from a competitor’s unfounded smear campaign. Bone charcoal is made by workers who burn animal bones, mostly cattle, in sealed ovens at temperatures as high as 1,292 F .
Why does the Trump administration suddenly care about forced labor?
Shortage of surgical gloves and the charcoal for US water treatment are what the headline should mention since no one reads articles anymore. Are the alternative sources of these prepared for filling the demand for such essentials or is health crisis expected result?
So, I’d normally say, great! Concrete step to address human rights issues. But, since it’s the Trump administration I immediately think hmmm, what’s Trump get out of this? These companies must be in direct competition with Ivanka’s businesses.
If they’re still importing things from China, save me the fake outrage and pearl clutching.
Sure...Costco just thought they found a good deal.
Good. Should block all trade with china until they improve human rights. Also should ban all chinese students from universities.
