Write 2 page essay on the topic A Web of Brands by Naomi Klein.

In order to make her point clear, Klein has presented an example of a scenario in Jakarta, Indonesia. The workers are young and they are even ignorant of the brand name of the product they are producing. They receive low payments. are required to work for long hours without an overtime pay. receive no benefits. and they are unable to establish unions. When some workers staged a three-day walkout against working long hours without overtime pay, the management removes the compulsory order for working long hours but the salary remained below the legal standard. The leaders and the threats to the management are fired thus discouraging any formation of unions.

Klein sees to it that she presents an actual incident in one of the factories in the Southeast Asia to prove her assertions that these are not merely hearsay. These are true-to-life experiences of the workers in the fields. These situations do exist and that there are people who are willing to suffer the consequences of working under such conditions because they just do not have the choice. They need to find a source of income and these are the only available ones. The "management offered a compromise typical of a region with a markedly relaxed relationship to labour legislation" is a statement that proves that manufacturers exploit the ignorance of the workers while gaining all the benefits from the work force.
