The indefinite general strike started last week by railway and subway workers in South Korea continues to hold even as the government increases its pressure on the workers. This coming week, Korean transport workers will also begin a general strike, both for their own industrial issues and in support of the striking public workers. These strikes are a continuation of the mobilisations that started in November 2015 and are shaping up as decisive struggles for the whole of the Korean working class. These strikes are receiving wide support internationally (see here, here, here and here).
