"To Sew or Not to Sew" Kathy Lee Gifford is very popular in America.She decided to launch a clothesline for low-income families in America. Like other clothing businesses, she decided to seek an oversees business where she can get the garment made, while at the same time give jobs to citizens of a poor county.In her research, she discovered that she could have the clothes made the less costly in Thailand.She contacted her attorney who then entered into an agreement with a Thailand manufacturing company, who then negotiated with a local Thai garment employer to make the clothes. The employer then opened 10 sewing shops in various cities within Thailand to accommodate her monthly supply orders. The agreement was faxed to the company and neither she, nor her attorney ever made a visit to the shops within the four years that they were in business.One day a reporter was tipped off that one of the sewing centers was a well-known sweatshop in the garment area where the workers were forced to work under unhealthy conditions (no air condition and leaky roofs) and had to work 14 long hours with only two breaks?As a matter of fact, it was later discovered that all of the shops were considered "sweatshops".
