# The Global Intelligence Files

On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Foxconn ceases compensation in bid to end Chinese staff suicides
Text of report in English by official Chinese news agency Xinhua (New
China News Agency)
[Xinhua: "Foxconn Ceases Compensation in Bid To End Staff Suicides"]
Shenzhen, June 8 (Xinhua) - Foxconn, a world-leading electronics
manufacturer, said on Tuesday that it would no longer offer financial
compensation to families of employees of its south China factory who
commit suicide.
Foxconn, hit by a series of staff suicides this year, said the move was to
prevent employees from killing themselves in order to receive a large cash
compensation for their families.
Ten Foxconn employees in China fell to their deaths so far this
year.Further, two other employees were injured when they also attempted
suicide by jumping off the buildings. Most of the victims' families
received compensation amounting to more than 100,000 yuan (14,662 US
dollars).
Though many of the victims came from China's impoverished countryside and
were said to have become depressed at the time of the tragedies, no
independent source has disclosed whether any employee had, in fact, sought
to commit suicide so their families might receive company compensation.
However, Foxconn officials have said they have "concrete evidence" that
some of its suicidal employees jumped for that financial concern,
according to posters seen in busy areas in Foxconn's Shenzhen complex.
"The act is wrong. Life is precious. To prevent such tragedies, Foxconn is
to cease releasing compensation other than that provided by law," the
poster says.
To stem the dramatic suicide trend, on Sunday the company announced it
would raise salaries for assembly workers at the Shenzhen plant by 66 per
cent to 2,000 yuan (293.3 US dollars) per month as of Oct. 1. But it is
not immediately clear how many of the company's 400,000 Chinese mainland
workforce would benefit from this wage hike.
Foxconn, whose parent company is the Taiwan-based Hon Hai Group, is a
major supplier to Apple, Sony and Nokia.
During the past few days, angry protesters have rallied on the streets of
Hong Kong and Taiwan to boycott Apple iphones, claiming Foxconn factory
employees must endure sweatshop-like working conditions, an allegation
repeatedly denied by Foxconn management.
