The problem is that many companies rely heavily on China, either for supply, manufacturing or as a big lucrative market. South Africa wasn't nearly as important on any of those, so it was a much easier stance to make.

I guess. These people always talk a good game. Tim Cook talks about justice here and justice there and the environment here and there... but where the rubber hits the road, he gets quiet --as do myriad others. I mention him because he poses as the iconic industry titan who says all the right things but it's just a thin veneer. Same with mr James. He talks justice US-side but come China, it's crickets.
