Last month, Li Qiang from China Labor Watch told VOA News that PT GNI framed the labor strike as an anti-China movement and gave the Chinese workers steel sticks and other tools to guard the facility. He said GNI also held the Chinese workers' paychecks as a means of control. Some workers hadn't received their paychecks for three to five months.
"The Chinese workers are victims themselves whose labor rights and interests are violated," Li said. "If they don't show up [to guard the facility] they may even lose their job."
