MSSC STRUGGLE REPORT (서울, 南朝鮮, 5.15/16)
First of all the bad news: Immigration officers, together with cops are intensifying the crackdown – alone last week on one day, Thursday, May 13, in Ansan they captured at least 60 migrants out off factories. Under the captured migrant workers are several migrant workers who were at least active participating in past demonstrations, we organized. In Seoul they arrested one ex-member of MSSC (Myeong-dong Sit-in Struggle Collective). Again, Immigration and police should keep in their f… mind: NOTHING WILL BE FORGOTTEN, NOTHING WILL BE FORGIVEN!!
Before yesterday, on Saturday, May 15, together with activists of “Struggle and Rice” (투쟁과 밥) one representative of MSSC participated on the event to celebrate the International Conscientious Objectors' Day (articles you can read here and here). The main motto: Bring the soldiers home. By the way: On June 5 (Saturday) there will be a Day of International Emergency Protest under the same motto, initiated by A.N.S.W.E.R. Coalition (for more details read this. WE SHOULD JOIN IT WITH A MASSIVE ACT OF RESISTANCE HERE!!!). Here you'll find new arguments why Korean troops have to come back NOW.
Back in Myeong-dong we got visitors from U.S. based International Action Center, they want to write something about our struggle in WORKERS WORLD. Ha, really funny: just some days before we wrote them a letter, requesting a kind of support… (and of course we got no answer untill now...)
Yesterday, we, together with other solidarity groups, made a solidarity visit in Ilsan/Pung-dong. We already, beside many others, wrote about the struggle there against to be expelled from their homes without to get any appropriate compensation for the future.
While we offered workshops, some other comrades cooked a kind of Korean pancake for all – very delicious.
In talks with the struggling activists we’d to learn how strong they are… They are complete “ordinary” people, but they were/are fighting against police (the f… cops tried to block us to enter the area in the beginning) and gangster gangs, hired by the construction company which want to build new apartment houses there (an article with more details about their struggle, the reasons and the possible future you’ll get during the next days)! Just strange! In this situation our duty has to be: JOIN THEIR STRUGGLE!!!
Here you'll find the last article (the second here) in Europe about us.
Army is bull shit!!
