Naomi Klein:
Well, the whole idea of the Export Processing Zone is that it will be the first step towards this wonderful new development, through the investment that's attracted to these countries there will be a trickle-down effect into the communities. But because so many countries are now in the game of creating these free-trade enclaves they have to keep providing more and more incentives for companies to come to their little denationalised pocket. And the tax holidays get longer. So the workers rarely make enough money to buy three meals a day, let alone feed their local economy.

Well the whole idea of the export processing zone
00:00:03.004 --> 00:00:06.153
is that it will be the first step towards
00:00:06.016 --> 00:00:08.399
this wonderful new development
00:00:08.004 --> 00:00:10.994
through the investment that's attracted to these countries
00:00:11.028 --> 00:00:12.713

into the communities
00:00:14.016 --> 00:00:17.277
But because so many countries are now in the game
00:00:17.036 --> 00:00:19.874
of creating these free trade enclaves
00:00:20.012 --> 00:00:22.759
they have to keep providing more and more incentives
00:00:23.000 --> 00:00:27.835
for companies to come to their little denationalized pocket
00:00:27.836 --> 00:00:30.679
And the tax holidays get longer
00:00:30.068 --> 00:00:32.075
So the workers rarely make enough money
00:00:33.998 --> 00:00:34.513
to buy three meals a days
00:00:34.052 --> 00:00:36.636
let alone feed their local economy
