Over the last several years, hundreds of Korean Government Employees’ Union (KGEU) and the Korean Federation of Public Services and Transportation Workers’ Unions (KPTU) members have been unfairly dismissed from their jobs in retaliation for legitimate union activities. Over 300 of these workers have yet to be reinstated. The President of the KGEU, Kim Jungnam, has been on a hunger strike outside the offices of the Presidential transition committee since mid January. A petition can be signed in support of these workers. For more information, and emailing petition, click here.
