As reported last week, the Korean working class is facing a big assault by government and employers who are trying to use a slowing economy to increase workers’ job insecurity and increase exploitation. The Korean Confederation of Trade Unions has declared that it will fight this offensive with the start of a new campaign of industrial actions. Earlier this week, tens of thousands of workers took to the streets of Seoul to show their anger.
