S. Korean Confederation of Trade Unions Declares All-Out Action to Counter Police Suppression

Pyongyang, December 5 (KCNA) -- The south Korean Confederation of Trade Unions (KCTU) held a press conference outside the building of the "National Assembly" on Dec. 1 at which it declared it would counter the police's campaign for arresting its chairman with an all-out action, according to the south Korean Yonhap News.

At the press conference, the organization disclosed that the police are mulling hurling repressive forces into the Jogye Temple where he has taken refuge to arrest him.

If the police storms into the temple, they would launch the all-out action, it noted.

It also warned the "Saenuri Party" that the KCTU would not remain an onlooker to the party's moves to railroad the labor bill through the "National Assembly" within this year despite the unanimous protest of the workers.
