Pretoria, 24 Aug-(ANA)-Trade Unions in South Africa have expressed anger over the continued influx of cheap Chinese goods and services forcing local companies to close shop.
Congress of South African Trade Unions (Cosatu) – representing local traders -describes the developments as a "tsunami".
Cosatu spokesman Patrick Craven said Chinese products are being produced by cheap and exploited workers.
“The greatest challenge for SA was that China’s products are being produced by exploited workers without labour rights and earning appallingly low wages. It is for this reason that Cosatu believes SA should impose tariffs on all Chinese products,” he said. (ANA)
