>>         Zambia's textile and clothing industry used to employ 34,000 
>>people. Then it was forced to open up to free trade.
>>
>>         Without protection Zambia's clothing manufacturers could not 
>>compete in the global market and cheap imports flooded in. The industry 
>>collapsed and now it employs just 4000 people.
>>
>>         This is just one example from one country.
