The problem has been caused by incorrect policies of Trade Ministry in allowing excessive imports of sugar.

This is one of the biggest sugar factories in Iran which has not been able to compete with low imported sugar prices and now has come to serious financial problems.

They can either pay and release those workers or pay them late and keep them with the hope that Trade ministry will not allow more imports and they can sell.

I wish the factory owners would stop being ***holes and pay their workers. All of our lives would be so much better if we simply treat other people with respect.
