“We need to know what the union wants to raise for its members. We'll take the next step.”The garment industry raised its loss estimates to $15 million on Wednesday in the wake of a general strike last week.
The $15 million was reported by at least 30 garment factories through the Garment Manufacturers Association of Cambodia, after thousands of workers went on strike in search of more pay.
GMAC Secretary-General Ken Loo told VOA Khmer on Wednesday the figure was based on lost production and damages factory property, costs for alternative logistics and freight, and for discounts on late deliveries.
