This clip of music video was made in conjunction with the launch of a website dedicated to Taiyuan's urban public transport. Taiyuan, the capital city of ShanXi province in northern central China, has a public transport network that consists of buses (both single and double deck) as well as a trolleybus system, which has 5 routes. The video is nicely done with a mandarin background music. It gives you a brief idea of how public transport in a typical industrial city in China looks like.

Mass Chaos at Foxconn's Taiyuan Factory

Updated: 27 Nov 2012

On Sunday night, a dispute at a Foxconn factory in Taiyuan turned into a large-scale skirmish, mobilizing thousands of workers. Reports as to the number of people sent to the hospital vary, but it is estimated that about 40 people were injured, leaving several in critical condition. The source of the dispute is unclear. Some sources report it was a personal conflict between workers from Henan and Shandong provinces. Users of Sina weibo, China's biggest microblogging site, are saying the conflict was between Foxconn guards and workers from Henan province. Neither theory has been verified and Foxconn representatives say it is under investigation. State-run media reported that five thousand police were deployed to the scene last night to bring things under control. By 3 am this morning, state-run media said everything was back to normal. However, a Foxconn employee told Reuters the plant might be closed for the next few days while an investigation is underway. The Tawian based group Hon Hai is the owner of Foxconn, one of the biggest electronics manufacturers in the world. It has several factories in China and employs over one million people to work on its assembly lines The plant in China's northwest Shanxi province employs about 79 thousand workers. Foxconn has come under scrutiny lately for its poor labor practices. It was recently accused of using interns on the assembly line to meet deadlines for the iPhone 5. It also had to install security nets after a string of ...

Foxconn's Taiyuan Factory Riot: What Happened?

Updated: 27 Nov 2012

Workers at the Taiyuan Foxconn factory are back to work today after a small-scale conflict turned into a large-scale brawl. The factory was closed on Monday after 40 people were reportedly sent to a hospital and the conflict was investigated. A dispute began late Sunday night and was not contained till 3 am on Monday morning. Photos said to be from the Foxconn factory show broken glass, smashed windows, and people running everywhere. The cause of the riot was not immediately apparent. Netizens speculated it was a fight between security guards and Foxconn workers. State-run media said it was a conflict between two workers from different provinces and was not work related. One employee, who asked to remain anonymous, confirmed netizen speculation. [Anonymous Foxconn Employee]: "Many security guards beat one worker, and when a lot of workers saw that, they kept it to themselves, and didn't say anything. But this time the conflict was too great, because they really beat the workers badly, so everyone just went crazy." Another anonymous employee told Reuters that the conflict was a result of too much staff and poor management. With around 79-thousand workers, he says, it is not surprising. [Anonymous Foxconn Employee]: "If the management system is inadequate for the entire plant, with tens of thousands of workers... there are too many workers, so if the management is inadequate and the specific details are not done properly, then there will definitely be incidents, like people ...
