韓籍員工捲款潛逃
《朝鮮日報》記者日前走訪位於越南同奈省壯奔縣的「光霖通商」工廠，平時有多達3千名員工一同作業的場景，如今已不復從前。門前僅剩警察和警備人員等7人守備，若非外頭飄揚的南韓國旗及寫有韓文的公佈欄，恐怕很難想像這裡曾是南韓企業駐外工廠。
據旗下職員表示，該廠原有12名南韓籍職員，本來應在2月8日左右發放薪水，但到了當天卻遲遲未見人影，12人就此銷聲匿跡，據說有近2千名越南籍職員未拿到1月份的薪水及保險費，總計312億印尼盾（約合新台幣6619萬），金額十分驚人。 《朝鮮日報》稱，目前南韓企業在越南當地總計擁有4000多間工廠，看似發展蓬勃，但實則有許多工廠因經營虧損嚴重，而不時傳出捲款潛逃的事件。這些「落跑廠商」除未支付或拖延支付當地職員薪水外，甚至還有將工廠設備丟在當地、斷絕所有聯絡潛逃的模式。
南韓企業「落跑」事件頻傳
當地業者表示，除這次的光霖通商事件外，另一間位於胡志民市的裁縫工廠（B社）也在2月初傳出關廠消息，總計有350名職員未拿到薪資，總計損失29億印尼盾（約合新台幣615萬）；另一間同是位於胡志明市的裁縫工廠（N社），也有600名職員的薪資、保險費未付，員工總計損失306億印尼盾（約合新台幣6493萬）。
究竟這些消失的韓籍員工去了哪裡？總公司又是否知情？《朝鮮日報》訪問「光霖通商」旗下總務職員陶漢提（音譯，非韓籍員工），陶漢提表示，在南韓職員突然消失無蹤後，工廠全部停擺，職員拿不到薪水，只能每天坐在工廠大門前抗議，等待奇蹟出現。「這裡有很多職員是來自鄉下的女性，整個家族都靠她們養，發現韓籍員工捲款潛逃後，她們在工廠前哭了整整3天。」
疑資金周轉不靈
據悉，這間駐外工廠原本走委託代工（OEM）生產形式，由南韓總公司確認美國訂單後再進行生產，但受南韓總公司資金周轉不順，面臨倒閉危機影響，外派越南、印尼的南韓職員紛紛突然消失無蹤。更甚的是，這波「落跑潮」剛好落在當地過年期間，各家都十分需要錢，引起越南社會強烈不滿及抗議，除越南各家媒體報導抗議情形外，受害職員也受訪表達不滿。
越南譴責聲浪高漲
受南韓工廠接連「落跑」事件影響，越南輿論高漲，越南總理阮春福也出面喊話，表示會全面支援受害勞工。目前除越南同奈省政府及相關勞工團體出面負責一半的1月薪資外，鄰近當地的10多間紡織品工廠，也表示會優先雇用因這次事件而失業的職員，但南韓企業的過錯卻讓全越南社會來承擔一事，仍飽受批評。
除緊急制定相關對策外，同奈省政府也透過位於胡志明市的南韓總領事館，向南韓政府提出申請，要求韓方將工廠職員遣返至越南，並販賣工廠支付受害職員薪水，但卻遭到總領事館人員婉拒。南韓總領事館相關人員表示，工廠人員並未因涉嫌犯下重罪而遭起訴，故很難由南韓政府出面拘捕，再轉送至越南。
從前面幾起案例來看，「落跑廠商」事件多半發生在對於景氣變動較無競爭力的紡織業者，據大韓貿易投資振興公社（KOTRA）統計，截至2016年底，現在總計有763家南韓紡織品企業進軍越南設廠，但受越南政府近7年內（指2012年至2018年間）不斷調漲最低薪資，人力成本逐年上漲影響，每間投資額平均僅有28億韓元（約合新台幣7630萬）。有部分南韓廠商原是因中國人力成本上漲而轉至越南，如今越南人力成本也調漲，南韓廠商不得不再向外尋求更低廉的人力資源。
值得注意的是，受南韓為越南重要投資國之一影響，目前越南政府還未以循官方途徑向南韓提出抗議或要求。位於越南中南部的南韓工商業者聯合會副會長表示，部分企業不負責任的行為，很有可能造成當地對南韓企業整體的信賴度下降，進而導致駐廠當地的企業無辜受到波及。

South Korean textile manufacturer "Kwang Lin Trading" (광림통상), a South Korean textile manufacturer located in the southeastern part of Vietnam's Zhuang Ben County, reported that money was absconded. Many Korean employees did not pay nearly 2,000 Vietnamese employees. Vanishing without a trace, triggered the attention of Vietnamese society. Although the local government has begun to start compensating measures, but because South Korea is an important investor in Vietnam, the Vietnamese government has not formally protested to the Korean side.
Korean employee absconding
A reporter from the “Chosun Ilbo” recently visited the “Guanglin Trade” factory in Zimpen County, Dong Nai Province, Vietnam. There are now as many as 3,000 employees working together. This is no longer the case. There are only seven police officers and guards waiting in front of the guard. If it is not the South Korean flag fluttering outside and the announcement column written in Korean, I am afraid it is difficult to imagine that this was a South Korean company's overseas factory.
According to its staff, the original 12 South Korean staff of the factory should have paid their salaries on or about February 8. However, on the same day, they did not see any shadows and 12 people disappeared. It is said that there are nearly 2,000 Vietnamese employees. We did not get January's salary and insurance premiums, totaling 31.2 billion Rupiah (approximately NT$ 66.19 million). The amount is alarming. According to the “Korean Daily”, South Korean companies currently have more than 4,000 factories in Vietnam. It appears that the development is booming. However, there are many factories that suffer from serious operating losses and have occasionally reported the absconding of funds. Apart from not paying or delaying the payment of local staff salaries, these “landing companies” have even lost their factory equipment and cut off all contact and abscond.
South Korea's "Falling" Event Frequent
Local industry officials stated that in addition to the Guanglin trade incident, another tailoring factory in Ho Chi Minh City (B) also reported the closure of the factory in early February. In total, 350 employees did not receive any pay, resulting in a total loss of 2.9 billion yuan. Indonesian Rupiah (approximately NT$ 6.15 million); the other is a tailoring factory (N-club) in Ho Chi Minh City. There are also 600 employees whose wages and insurance premiums have not yet been paid. The total employee loss is 34.6 billion rupiah. NT$64.93 million).
Where did these disappeared Korean employees go? Is the head office aware of this? The “Korean Daily” interviewed Tao Hanti, a general staff member of the “Guanglin Trading Group”. Tao Hanti stated that after the South Korean staff disappeared suddenly, the factory was completely shut down, and the staff could not get a salary. Can stand in front of the factory gate to protest every day, waiting for a miracle. “There are a lot of staff here who are women from the countryside. The whole family is dependent on them. After discovering that the Korean employees absconded with money, they cried for three days before the factory.”
Suspected cash flow is not working
It is reported that this overseas factory originally took the form of OEM production, and South Korea’s head office confirmed production after the US orders. However, South Korea’s head office’s cash flow was not smooth, and it faced the crisis of closing down and dispatched Vietnam and Indonesia. South Korean staff suddenly disappeared. What is even worse is that this wave of “running off” has just fallen during the local Chinese New Year. Everyone is in great need of money, causing strong dissatisfaction and protests in Vietnamese society. In addition to reports of protests by Vietnamese media, the victim’s employees also expressed their opinions. dissatisfied.
Vietnam condemns the upsurge
Under the influence of the "falling" incident in South Korea's factories, Vietnam's public opinion rose. Vietnamese Prime Minister Nguyen Nhun Chun-fu also announced that he would fully support the victims. Currently, in addition to the Vietnamese Dong Nai provincial government and related labor groups, they are responsible for half of the January salary. In addition, more than 10 textile factories near the local government also indicated that they will give priority to the employment of the unemployed due to this incident. However, the fault of the South Korean company allows the The Vietnamese society has come to bear the issue and still suffers criticism.
In addition to urgently formulating relevant countermeasures, the Dong Nai Provincial Government also submitted an application to the South Korean Government through the South Korean Consulate in Ho Chi Minh City to request the South Koreans to repatriate their factory staff to Vietnam and sell the factory to pay the salaries of the injured workers. The consulate staff refused. Concerned personnel of the South Korean Consulate stated that factory personnel were not prosecuted for suspected felony crimes, and it was therefore difficult for the South Korean government to arrest and transfer them to Vietnam.
Judging from the previous cases, most of the “falling vendors” incidents occurred to textile companies that were less competitive in terms of economic changes. According to KOTRA statistics, there were a total of 763 South Korean textiles as of the end of 2016. The company entered Vietnam to set up factories, but the Vietnamese government has kept increasing the minimum wage for the last 7 years (from 2012 to 2018), and the labor costs have been rising year by year. The average investment is only 2.8 billion won (approximately NT$7,630). Million). Some South Korean manufacturers were originally transferred to Vietnam because of rising labor costs in China. Today, the cost of labor in Vietnam has also increased. South Korean manufacturers have to look for cheaper human resources.
It is worth noting that South Korea is affected by one of the important investment countries in Vietnam. At present, the Vietnamese government has not submitted an official protest to South Korea. According to the vice president of the South Korean Federation of Industry and Commerce in South-Central Vietnam, the irresponsible behavior of some companies is likely to result in a decline in local trust in South Korean companies as a whole, which in turn will cause the influx of local companies in the factory.
