A pair of Angry Birds are — wait for it — angry. Garfield and Donald Duck are rightly pissed too. And don’t get the Chinese God of Wealth started. He’s livid.
Several migrant workers cosplayed as famous characters to draw attention to unpaid wages. According to Offbeat China, the five workers sat in front of China National Radio’s headquarters and held a sign that read “Pay back my blood-sweat (hard-earned) money.”
Filing in court to get unpaid wages can prove either costly or difficult for migrant workers. As Offbeat China notes, getting attention online might be their best leverage.
