US Customs vows to block imports made by North Korea workers

In this Sept. 2, 2017, photo, North Korean workers from the Hong Chao Zhi Yi garment factory gather for a head count after shopping at a street market in the city of Hunchun in northeastern China’s Jilin province. The vast majority of the workers in Hunchun are women in their 20s. They arrive in China already divided into work teams, each led by a North Korean overseer, and remain isolated even from their own employers. Privacy is forbidden and they cannot leave their compounds without permission. When allowed to leave their compounds, they go to the city’s working-class street markets. (AP Photo/Ng Han Guan)
