At least 23 workers were hurt in Cambodia...when the police, using stun batons, moved in to end a protest over wages at a factory that makes clothing for Nike, a trade union representative said. The police were ordered to move about 3,000 workers, mostly women, who had blocked a road outside their factory in Kampong Speu Province, west of the capital, Phnom Penh. Sun Vanny, president of the Free Trade Union, said that the workers had been protesting since last Tuesday and that they wanted the company, which employs more than 5,000 at the plant, to give them $14 a month to help pay for transportation, rent and health costs on top of their $74 minimum wage. Police officials declined to comment on the clash. A Nike spokeswoman in the United States said the company was concerned about the allegations and investigating. Nike requires contract manufacturers to respect employees’ freedom of association, she said.
