Another China Honda Plant Hit by Strike - WSJ.com
Honda Faces More Trouble In China
Workers at Foshan Fengfu Autoparts Co. walked off the job earlier this week, seeking pay raises, just days after Honda settled a two-week strike at a wholly owned parts supplier that had forced the Japanese automaker to freeze production at all four of its car assembly factories in China due to a lack of parts.
The conflicts reflect rising tensions between workers and foreign companies that rely on China as a source of cheap labor and a fast-growing market. Companies in China are finding it harder to attract and keep workers, who are demanding better pay and working conditions.

At some point, you knew that they would become Americanized enough that they would want to work for more than "food".
Now we can see some real competition.
