KMWU Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI) Branch members go on a 2-hour walkout today. Already, through strikes and rallies, the KMWU Daewoo Shipbuilding Local members have been protesting the backroom-deal merger of Hyundai Heavy Industries (HHI) with Daewoo Shipbuilding and Marine Engineering (DSME).

Social and economic impacts of this merger which has global implications should be taken into consideration.
