Luxury Protest

Mongolian workers at Ulan Bator's Gobi Cashmere factory -- one of the largest cashmere factories in the world -- are shown in this file photo from June 24. Mongolian cashmere manufacturers claim China is engaging in unfair business practices, by undercutting and labelling their clothing `made in Mongolia' to gain export tax advantages in the US. Mongolia's fragile economy depends heavily on exporting cashmere, producing one-fifth of the world's 15,000 tonnes annually, second only to China.Jul 03, 2004
