Mr. Chair, generally these are capital-intensive industries that don't employ most people anyway. The targeted divestment model carefully excludes things like agriculture, which employ 85% of the population. Upwards of two-thirds of the workforces of these Chinese, Indian, and Malaysian companies are in fact foreign.
Finally, I would add that in fact pressure on these companies is working. Nine major companies have either changed problematic operations or left. The Chinese government has taken action by leaning on the Sudanese government to accept Resolution 1769 to allow UNAMID into the country. Clearly that's not being implemented, but this was a major shift from China's normal way of doing things, which is to be completely hands off and no talk about human rights abuses in other countries.
