   Meh. The workers are obviously well aware of the negative publicity that Microsoft and Apple have drawn following previous suicides at the factory. As such I expect this ‘mass suicide’ threat is merely an attempt by the workers to leverage Microsofts (and Apples) desires to avoid further incidents.

   I hope the workers get the better conditions etc they’re seeking, but I seriously doubt they would commit a mass suicide for the sake of their cause.
