I'd like to go inside one of the big Asian car plants. The Ford/Changan JV plant will have a capacity of 1.5 million units/pa by the end of the decade I think it was, and this is just to satisfy domestic demand...

Is that the plant where the workers went nuts and killed a manager, and beat up a whole bunch of others, while destroying the place, because they were discriminated against?

It was one of the Suzuki plants in India.
