    @charchabilium5 @verge Because it would cost more to produce the products, in Vietnam Apple would pay less for workers and all of the manufacturing process.

    if Apple could move iPhone production to Vietnam, and drop Ofilm as a supplier (although I suspect the Uighur slaves were making for domestic makes like Xiaomi, OnePlus and Huawei), that would be great xD https://www.macrumors.com/...

    Apple couldn't have found a democratic country without systematic Human Rights abuses to move manufacturing to? Didn't we learn our lesson the first time about empowering a communist regime? Human Rights Watch for Vietnam: https://www.hrw.org/... https://twitter.com/...

    Whatever Trump departure means for the China trade war, Apple supplier is diversifying. Vietnam wins again. Scoop by ⁦@YimouLee⁩ https://uk.reuters.com/...
