My intention is not to downplay poor working conditions, mental health, or anything else, just adding some numbers.

The suicide rate in China is ~7/100,000. Foxconn employs 200,000 in one location. One would expect to see some suicides there.

Looking at the list of Foxconn suicides, they've been averaging <1 per year since 2011 and that's for all of Foxconn in China, not just the 200,000 person factory.
