Just on the sweatshop side of things, the Cobra factory in Chonburi Thailand isn't a sweatshop. The factories like it and the Rip Curl factory in the North have to maintain strict (by Thai standards) factory conditions and pay rates for their workers. I lived there for 11 years and became good friends with the manager of one of the factories and so have seen first hand the factories and the way they are operated. I'm not taking sides here letting you know what I've seen. Chinese factories are a whole different ballgame.
