S. Korean Labor Bodies Protest Regime's Crackdown on Their Actions

Pyongyang, February 24 (KCNA) -- South Korean labor organizations, including the Confederation of Trade Unions, held a press conference in Seoul on Feb. 16 in protest against the puppet regime's crackdown on the just labor movement, according to south Korean Yonhap News.

At the press conference speakers said that a general strike is a legitimate right of the workers.

The trade unions are being pushed to the cliff because of the vicious moves of the Ministry of Employment and Labor and the Supreme Court blocking the labor movement, they said.

They demanded the authorities stop punishing the trade unions for their just strikes and abolish the unjust disciplinary measures and wrong business of the management side.
