While I understand what you're getting at, would you feel the same way if they were taking advantage of cheap labor from a dictatorship? China may be a sovereign nation, but how much choice do the citizens have regarding their working conditions? I realize they're not strictly a dictatorship, but at the same time the question still stands.
And perhaps more to the point: Ignoring that he just focused on the workweek, if your company is well aware that the working conditions are bad in any sense of the imagination, is that really justifiable just because it is legal? Or do you have a certain amount of responsibility to ensure proper and safe working conditions regardless of what is considered sufficient by the law?
