On July 13, 2010, workers at the fully Japan-funded Atsumitec Auto Parts (Foshan) Co. Ltd. in Foshan City of Guangdong went on strike protesting low wages. This was followed by a strike at the Omron auto parts plant in Guangzhou on July 21. Both won substantial wage rises after the strikes.

The Reuters’ report on the partial victory in the Atsumitec strike was only available in Chinese:
