Pyongyang, January 20 (KCNA) --The Emergency Situation Council to Urgently Cope with Layoff, Part-time Jobs and Destruction of Trade Unions in south Korea held a press conference around Kwanghwamun, Seoul on Jan. 17 at which it denounced the puppet authorities for their suppression of the labor movement. At the press conference the organization branded the death of many workers as murders by the regime and capital. Enterprise owners, backed by power, are pressurizing those workers affiliated to trade unions, dismissing and suppressing them, the organization charged. Even the regime, conservative media and courts are joining in this suppressive campaign, it noted. Broad segments of people will turn out in large-scale actions in case the authorities turn down the demand for a halt to the suppression of the labor movement and do not take responsible steps, it warned. |
