    The United States will block shipments of palm oil from a major Malaysian producer that feeds into the supply chains of iconic U.S. food and cosmetic brands after finding indicators of forced labor and physical and sexual abuse.http://apne.ws/6OtXLWk

        interviewed nearly 130 current and former workers from 2 dozen palm oil companies and witnessed some abuses firsthand. Some workers said they were cheated, threatened, held against their will or forced to work off huge debts.http://apne.ws/N6vCEo0

        Oh never mind. All they have to do is block out a floor of that gaudy DC Trump hotel for a week, and the planet killing palm oil will flow again in the USA.

        Chinese gangsters own Malaysia and Indonesian palm oil. All the money goes back to the central bank of China. They illegally clear the land by starting fires . Then someone steps in and buys the land and plants palm oil. Chinese own more territory through this business.

        So you can talk crap against globalization all you want. Abuse like this doesn’t end until workers globally are paid a fair wage and offered the same protections against abuse as in the “free world”.
