Chinese plead for financial help in Xian
A large crowd surrounds a television reporter interviewing a sobbing Chinese couple huddled on the sidewalk pleading for financial help after they lost their jobs and their employer refused to pay them wages owed in Xi'an, the capital of Shaanxi Province, on July 1, 2012. Labor exploitation is widespread across China and is becoming an increasingly visible problem, with a rise in worker suicides and protests getting the attention of China's top leaders and international human rights organizations.
