Dec.1, 2004 Znet stated the following: The Equality Trade Union-Migrants Branch(ETU-MB), a trade union of largely undocumented migrant workers in South Korea, ended its 380 day long sit-in in front of downtown Seoul's Myeongdong Cathedral on Sunday. Their sit-in had started on November 15, 2003 to protest the government's crackdown on undocumented migrant workers...
About one year earlier Base21(참세상's former English section) reported the following: Since more than one week ETU-MB (Equality Trade Union-Migrants Branch) activists and their allies from KCTU (Korean Confederation of Trade Unions), Hanguk Migrant Worker's Human Rights Center, Incheon, Nepal Struggle Team and KASAMMAKO (Alliance of Filipino Migrant Organizations & Migrante Sectoral Party - Korea Chapter), are occupying Myeongdong Cathedral's compound downtown Seoul. They decided to use this mean to give the struggle of migrant workers more power, because they are thinking, that the gov't only will listen to us if we force them...
2003.12.15, one month after the beginning of the sit-in struggle, we created a special home page(*) to inform about our daily activities, the national/int'l solidarity, our upcoming (internal/external)projects/plans and the press review in the S. Korean (bourgeois)media.
* Our daily news(etc.) you'll get on "fash news"(the first contribution you'll find on page #9). We also published (at least)hundreds of photos, depicting our sit-in struggle. You'll get them @"picPDS". The first contribution "nov 15, begin of our sit in struggle on myeongdong cathedral's compound" you can see page #48.
PS. Before Dec. 15 we published our (english)daily news on ETU-MB's home page(please check out "News&Dates", page 13, article #15).
"Rodong Sinmun Sunday in an article says that the Democratic People's Republic of Korea which has been led by the peerlessly great men generation after generation is an invincible country with single-minded unity which can not be found in the world." (source: KCNA, 12.2)
No comment, but...
Y'day(12.1) afternoon in Seoul: About 15,000 workers protested outside the National Assembly against the government's labor policy, which they claim is too friendly to chaebol, or the country's leading conglomerates.
The protest was participated in by members of 50 associations from across the nation, including the Korean Confederation of Trade Unions (KCTU), the Korea Democratic Street Vendors Confederation(민주노련) and the Nat'l Alliance of Squatters and Evictees(전철연).
This was the first mass meeting of a varied group of associations since November 2015 when people held candlelit rallies to protest then-President Park Geun-hye's political corruption.
They urged the government to halt the implementation of a flexible work hour system and retract its street vendor management policy.
"The National Assembly that once voted for impeachment is now trying to turn the clock back the time before we protested because of the corruption scandal. The government is now returning to a pro-chaebol policy putting workers' livelihoods on the line," KCTU Chairman Kim Myung-hwan said at the gathering...(source: K. Times, 12.2/more you can read here)
Here you'll get a detailed report in Korean(incl. pics, a short video report and the full text of the closing statement, resp. the "People's Declaration"). KCTU's report, also in Korean, you'll get here.
