MSSC STRUGGLE REPORT (04/04/01)
Latest news
As you already know, yesterday they deported Samar! Until now he’s still detained in police education center (actually a case to worry…). Our last information: because Korean “authorities” deported him without his Nepalese passport. So Nepalese “authorities” were not clear about his nationality, but Samar’s father brought a document that proofs that Samar is his son and consequently Nepalese citizen. So when all formalities are finished today they will release him immediately. Like that is our last information from Samar’s family.
Report
First of all, as we already said weeks before, the government should keep in mind: What is not killing us, just it made us stronger!
But anyway the current situation is a very serious situation and it shows our limitation. While government’s policy of mass deportation is failing – in contradiction, instead of 120.000 undocumented migrant workers (mw) in Nov last year, now there are 150.000 “illegal” mw here and in at least three month 200.000 “illegal” mw will live here – government’s policy of repression against us partly is “successful”, or better said: in parts we are not able to achieve properly what we demanded. This is just the reality! (IT DOESN”T MEAN THAT WE WILL GIVE UP, NOT AT ALL!!!) And the reality just is the proof of our opinion we every day repeat: the government has no power to hunt, detain and deport all “illegal” mw, because they are masses. Immigration and police only can act against individuals, not against masses of individuals, because government’s means, like places in detention centers, the number of immigration officers etc, are limited. We, MSSC and the mw activists in the different regions, are not separated individuals, but also not masses. And this is our weakness: we have strong determination, but our number is small. As you know: if we would not have such a strong solidarity from the side of Korean workers and student activists, immigration and riot cops already would arrest us all. Just the reality! And already they were trying to catch us all! Perhaps you remember Feb 22, our rally and demo to celebrate 100 days sit-in struggle? They thought 1.000 combat riot cops would be enough to break up our rally and capture us all, but thanks to 900 mw, Korean student activists and unionists, on the end they had to give up their plan. But not every time we can count on the solidarity of our Korean comrades – we have to build our own power, otherwise we can’t achieve our goal. Today’s reality lectures us something very important, we just have to internalize it and to act properly! Then, we are sure, we will be able to reach our goal! Otherwise, just we will lose!
Yesterday we’d two rallies in Myeong-dong protesting against Samar’s deportation. The atmosphere of the first one, in the afternoon, was characterized by deep sadness. But surprisingly the second, the evening rally, even it was raining cats and dogs, was so powerful! About 300 people gathered on our struggle place and promised never to give up solidarity with us, the struggle and to organize us better than ever. Mahbub, a comrade from Bangladesh said later with full enthusiasm: “This day brought us a new and stronger unity in our struggle collective!”
PROTEST AGAINST SAMAR'S DEPORTATION!
Make protest calls to the Immigration Office!
