Labour and human rights violations in Indonesia, the Philippines, and India

2017-05-16

Asia is one of the fastest growing economies in the world. Partly, the rapid economic growth is due to the rise of Factory Asia as manufacturing as well as the deepening of agricultural and extractive transnational corporations'  (TNCs) operations in the region. Investments by TNCs are welcomed by the Asian governments, which have been adopting neoliberal economic policies more than ever.

These investments promised jobs and livelihood to Asian workers; however, in exchange for these promises, they dispossessed and exploited the local people of their rights, lands, and resources. These dispossession and exploitation have come in various forms of attacks not only to human rights defenders but also to the people's collective rights.

The files below are compilations of cases of labour and human rights violations involving businesses in Indonesia, the Philippines, and India. The cases show the businesses' rampant disrespect for the workers' and other marginalised peoples' rights.
