Exploiting local corruptions to lower manufacturing cost has always been an unethical business practice. Nike, for instance, has always been linked to these scandalous accusations. By using Indonesian military forces Nike intimidated factory workers into accepting lower pays. This socially irresponsible action demonstrated the exact opposite of ethical business practices. This was not the first time Nike had been accused of operating out of bad faith overseas. The issue of using local corruption has always remained unresolved.
Many may criticize Nike and empathize with the unfortunate victims who fall under the control of powerful yet unethical corporations. However, to almost all corporations, these actions are merely an efficient way to generate larger profit for shareholders. Some may not even care the fact that their benefits are based on the suffering of others. In a world where money talks, these unethical actions may not even concern the vast majority, including distributors who gain more profit and consumers who enjoy lower prices.
Questions on business ethics are always debatable; however, there will not likely be a conclusion which all parties involved will appreciate and follow.
