Thousands of Chinese workers protested at a factory making electronics over the weekend. The workers were protesting unclear compensation practices and job security after the merger of two companies. The strike is the latest in a string of labor disputes at plants in China's Shenzhen province, where many factories are located. The company said that they did not expect the strike to effect production.
