Yes, you are right, there are I am sure plenty Romaninas looking for a job, but Chinese wokers are cheeper!!! This is sad result of globalization!
@seesaw, Here's what I found disgusting, did you read the wages of these workers? They were paying above the local wages, above what would have been paid to Romanians with similar skills. And I mihgt add, far more than the Chinese would be making if they lived in China, and I would lay serious money that their accomadations and working conditions were better than in China, or at least not worse.
I doubt their situation was ideal, but then again I think the Chinese in this case had it better than Romanians would have.
This is more about the local kleptocrats not wanting to do anything for the Romanians, for example, hire them, train them, and pay them an appropriate local wage. They would have been cheaper off that way.
I laughed when I read about the Chinese attacking the factory owner with spoons and forks. That was one of the funniest things I've ever read.
Most Chinese I've known are good people and hard workers, but you wouldn't want to cross them.
