The fight by workers at the Ssangyong Motor Company that was started in 2009 with the heroic occupation of their factory is still continuing despite many setbacks. Former workers of Ssangyong have now started a public hunger strike. They were encouraged by a visit by international trade union representatives. For workers in such a globalised industry like the motor industry the best way to fight back is to organise at an international level and take co-ordinated industrial action across many countries.
