Detained Over Ivanka Trump Factory Inspection, China Labor Activist Speaks Out
When Mr. Hua tried to visit Hong Kong to discuss video details with Li Qiang, the founder
and director of China Labor Watch, nearly two weeks later, he was stopped by Chinese border police and told that he could not leave mainland China.
China Labor Watch, a New York-based labor advocacy group, hired Mr. Hua, 36, in early May as a consultant to
join two younger activists who had taken jobs at two Huajian International shoe factories in southern China.
The State Department spokeswoman, Alicia Edwards, also said
that American companies benefited when undercover labor investigators could help make sure that Chinese manufacturers were respecting labor laws.
The case involving Mr. Hua and two fellow activists has focused unwanted attention not only on poor labor practices in China,
but also on the manufacturing operations of Ms. Trump, the president’s daughter and a special adviser in the White House.
