Yesterday, June 3, at 2 pm, before the weekly meeting of MWTV, the demonstration of struggling printing workers, organized in the National Union of Media Workers, took place near Jungmu-ro Station. Today they are since 39 days a rotating in sit-in struggle.
Their struggle tent you can find here:
About the struggle history and the presently fight you can read in Korean here.
But the real struggle highlight was in the evening: “illegal” migrant workers (NO HUMAN IS ILLEGAL!), organized in an “illegal” trade union (MTU), made an “illegal” protest in the Dongdaemun area. At 7 pm for one hour and twenty minutes six migrant workers, supported and protected by ten activists of DLP (민노당 – perhaps because of this fact the protest was not really illegal. 감사합니다, 同志!!), shouted slogans and distributed leaflets near the Dongdaemun Station to make the public attentive about the current situation of migrant workers in S. Korea in general and especially about the situation of MTU (perhaps the government will not legalize the union, Anwar Hossain, the president of MTU is still in prison and is facing deportation…). And the action was really successful, because we got a lot of attention from the citizens, not least because of Daham-kke’s “mobile propaganda machine” excessive effectiveness!
(Here, in the foreground, you can see her in action nearly exactly one year ago)
Anyway, after the rally in front of a subway entrance we marched, while shouting slogans and distributing more leaflets, through the area. Finally we made another rally and finished our powerful protest successfully. Later we decided that this kind of action must be regularly repeated.
Here just some impression from the protest, taken by Jeon Min-seong
RELEASE ANWAR HOSSEIN AND ALL OTHER MIGRANT WORKERS
FROM DETENTION CENTERS!
LET’S FIGHT TOGETHER FOR A WORLD WITHOUT EXPLOITATION
AND OPPRESSION!
ANOTHER WORLD IS POSSIBLE, ONLY IF YOU WANT AND FIGHT FOR IT!
