| Pyongyang, July 28 (KCNA) -- The south Korean Confederation of Trade Unions demanded the withdrawal of lay-off and stop to the suppression of trade unions. The organization held a rally in the plaza of the Seoul City Office on July 23 with more than 3,000 unionists attending. At the rally speakers denounced the Hanjin Heavy Industries Co. Ltd. and the Yusong Enterprise for setting in motion gangsters to crack down workers calling for their vital rights. They cannot stop the actions till they gain the basic labor rights and political freedom, they said. They would further expand sit-in hunger strikes. They demanded the authorities stop the unreasonable lay-off and moves to undermine the trade unions. At the end of the rally they made a demonstration march. |
