MILAN - An NGO is urging activists to spam fashion brand Uniqlo with social media messages - urging the company to pay severance money to garment workers who lost their jobs in Indonesia - on the day it opens a key new store in Milan.
The Labour Behind the Label initiative wants people to spam Uniqlo as it opens its first store in the Italian fashion capital on Friday 13th September.
It is trying to raise awareness of the plight of workers at the Jaba Garmindo factory, in the Indonesian capital city of Jakarta, who it says lost their jobs overnight when UNIQLO and other major buyers withdrew orders in 2015.
