Korean news outlets report that Chinese workers at a parts plant have demanded wage increase.
See it in the context of China becoming its own consumer market.
The Western media run the similar stories.
From the New York Times:
More than 1,000 workers at a parts factory near Beijing that supplies South Korea’s Hyundai Motor suspended work for most of Saturday to demand higher wages. They returned to work after management promised a raise, the local media reported.
“There was a little production disruption on both May 28 and 29, but it has been back to normal operations since May 30,” a Hyundai representative said in an e-mail message from Seoul.

From Bloomberg:
Honda Motor Co.’s car production in China will remain halted at least until tomorrow as some striking workers at a parts plant in the country rejected a proposed pay increase.
