Employees are most vulnerable.

Research shows that Kampuchea, Indonesia, Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam face about 137 million unemployed workers, who occupy 56% of the workforce in these countries.

The Deborah France-Massin of the International Labour Organization says that "countries that rely on low wage labor competition need to re position themselves.

Southeast Asia is several.

manufacturing industry

Such as textile, automobile and hard disk drive.

Its population exceeds 630 million.

In Southeast Asia, 9 million people are engaged in textiles.

And footwear industry.

Among Indonesian workers, the high risk of unemployment due to automation is 64%, Vietnam is 86%, and Kampuchea is 88%.

Orders for Kampuchea's clothing industry mainly come from retailers like Adidas, Marsha and WAL-MART, while Kampuchea employs about 600 thousand people.

Because of the new free trade agreement with some major markets, such as the US led p Pacific Partnership, Vietnam's footwear and textile industries are attracting record investments.

Vietnam has become the second largest supplier of clothing to the United States, second only to China.

The ILO said that 3D printing, wearable technology, nanotechnology and robotics automation will adversely affect these industries.

The agency pointed out that "the ability of robots to work on the production line and the ability to cooperate with humans is becoming stronger and stronger, and prices have also become cheaper."

Textile, clothing and footwear industries are among the five most vulnerable to automation.
