How much of that money goes to the garment worker? In 2011, a company in Canada looked into this. These polo shirts are manufactured in Bangladesh, and the production cost for one polo shirt is $5.67. Of that amount, only two percent is paid to the worker; that is one-fifth of the factory owner’s portion. For that $14 shirt, the worker can expect to earn less than one percent of the market price.The polo shirt is made in Bangladesh for a good reason. The apparel maker thinks that the low-priced products will sell well. Therefore, most companies are apt to use workers overseas who work for low wages so that they can produce shirts at a low cost. One month’s salary at the local factory is about 5,000 yen. It is lower than the money a high school student can earn from a part-time job in a day in Japan. (174 words) ( ) You may see people at a factory in Bangladesh working in harsh conditions. A 24-year-old woman named Shilpy has been working in a garment factory for ten years. She has no choice but to work there to raise her two daughters, since her husband is sick and cannot work. She keeps working at the sewing machine for eight hours a day. There is no air-conditioning, and in summer it reaches 40˚C with high humidity. These conditions are harmful to workers’ health.The situation is more awful than you could possibly imagine. Sometimes terrible accidents occur in garment factories in Bangladesh. In 2013, a factory building collapsed because the factory’s owner left the building neglected for a long time. A thousand people were killed in the accident. The disaster is considered to be one of the worst industrial tragedies in history.These are the facts behind the low prices of cheaply manufactured clothes. Knowing these facts, would you want to buy a cheap polo shirt from Bangladesh?

The main reason is its low price. I exercise a lot and the shirt would get stretched out quickly, so a low-priced shirt is perfectly acceptable for me. The second reason is that I think a cheap polo shirt suits me. I am just a high school student and I’m not interested in wearing high fashion clothes. The third reason is that by buying the shirt, I can help support the lives of people in Bangladesh. Of course, from my point of view, Shilpy’s wages are quite low. However, if we stop buying their products, they will have less work to do. I am afraid that the factories in Bangladesh would close down. For these reasons, I would choose to buy this inexpensive polo shirt. (144 words)Another person in the audience gives her opinion.I would not buy this polo shirt for several reasons. First of all, I don’t feel comfortable in cheap shirts made of low-quality material. I usually choose a good-quality shirt. Also, cheap shirts are not durable, so we have to keep buying new shirts frequently. It is a waste of resources. More than anything else, I don’t want the workers to be exploited. Shilpy’s working conditions are intolerable and she is poorly paid for her work. The business should improve the conditions of the factories and increase the wages of its workers. To sum up, I want to wear a comfortable and long-lasting shirt and select a product that helps improve the lives of the local people.
