Supermax shares fall to low of RM2 over alleged labour abuses


"With 10 of the 11 forced labour indicators identified during the course of our investigation, CBP has ample evidence to conclude that Supermax and its subsidiaries produce gloves in violation of U.S. trade law," said AnnMarie R. Highsmith, Executive Assistant Commissioner at the CBP Office of Trade.

KUALA LUMPUR: Share price of Supermax Corporation Bhd fell to a low of RM2 on Thursday on news the United States has barred imports.

Reuters reported the imports were barred over alleged forced labour practices at the company, the fourth Malaysian firm to face such a ban in the past 15 months.
