Dear Mr Cook, I am one of the millions of people who use an iPhone every day...I find that the labour conditions in Apple's supplier factories are actually not the worst of the factories used by multinational electronics companies...Apple has done more recently to improve these conditions...However, there are still two big questions that Apple needs to answer...First, how can a company that claims to make working conditions a priority make such astronomical profits at a time when those making its products are obviously suffering?...Second, how can a company with as much control over its manufacturing process as Apple not know what labour conditions are like in its supply chain?...We believe that the answer to these questions is that the problem...is deeply rooted in your company's business model...We believe the most basic cause of the problems at your supplier factories is the low price Apple insists on paying them...Apple needs simply to share a larger proportion of its sizeable profits with the supplier factories it contracts with and, by extension, the people who make its products. [also refers to Foxconn (Hon Hai)]
