Tough. Outsorcing is the only way out definitely. The cost of zinc is sky high and counterfeits are flooding the market and our government will do nothing about it. Factory closure is not a good sign but what to do. its a little late for them to think of other businesses to do now. They should have started doing that some time back when the writing was on the wall. I read somewhere on this forum that they were thinking of going into diapers production. Sounds chizzy but I hear that its making some people alot of money. They need to use that factory for something anyway. I pity the 170 families represented there.
